"Are we to go?"

[Intro: Okey Canfield Chenoweth Lincoln]
"From whence shall we expect the approach of danger? Shall some transatlantic giant step the earth and crush us at a blow? Never! All the armies of Europe and Asia could not, by force, take a drink from the Ohio or set a track on the Blue Ridge in the trial of a thousand years. If destruction be our lot, we ourselves must be its author and finisher. As a nation of free men, we will live forever, or die by suicide."

1: Patrick Stickles]
There'll be no more the cars on the Garden State Parkway
Nor waiting for the Fung Wah bus to carry me to
And when I stand tonight, the lights of the Fenway
Will I not like hell for the glory of the Newark Bears?
where I'm going to now, no one can ever hurt me
Where the well of human hatred is and dry
No, I never wanted to the world, but I'm looking for a new New Jersey
Because tramps like us, baby, we were to die

2: Patrick Stickles]
I'm 70 on 17, 80 over 84
And I never let the Meritt Parkway magnetize me no
me a brutal Somerville summer
Give me a cruel New winter
me the great Pine Barrens
So I can see them turned splinters
And if I come in on a donkey, let me go out on a
I want to too late I never should have left New Jersey
Whoa-oh-oh-oh,
La da da da da da da da da da da, yeah!
Whoa-oh-oh-oh,
La da da da da da da da da da da, yeah!

[Verse 3: Patrick
I sense the enemy, they're rustling around in the
I thought I had away but the followed me to 02143
Oh, woe, woe is me, no one the trouble I see
When they hang Jeff Davis from a sourapple tree, I'll sit beneath the leaves and
of us shall be saved, every man will be a slave
For John Brown's body lies a-mould'ring in the grave and there's rumbling down in the
So if it's time for choosing sides, and to show this city how we do the Jersey Slide
And if it deserves a better class of
Then give it to them tonight
So we'll rally around the flag, rally the flag
Rally around the flag, boys, rally once
Shouting the Battle Cry of
Rally the flag, rally around the flag
Glory, glory, Hallelujah, His truth is on

[Outro: Nolen Lloyd Garrison]
"I will be as harsh as truth and as uncompromising as justice. On subject, I do not wish to think, or speak, or write with moderation. I am in earnest. I will not equivocate, I will not excuse, I will not retreat a single inch, and I will be heard."
