The Liberty Tree





It's a tall old tree and a strong old tree
And we are the Sons, yes, we are the Sons,
the Sons of Liberty!

Plant the seed in our homeland boys,
Let it grow where all can see.
Feed it with our devotion, boys.
Call it the Liberty Tree.



Flag of the Sons of Liberty



Save it from the storm, boys.
Water down it's roots with tea;
And the sun will always shine 
On the old Liberty Tree!

March along with the piper, boys.
We were born forever free.
We will pay the piper, boys
Beneath the Liberty Tree!

Pay the price they're asking, boys,
Always pay the tyrant's fee.
Never give up the struggle, boys,
Fight for the Liberty Tree!

Stand for the rights of man, boys.
Stand against all tyranny.
Hang the light of freedom, boys,
High on the Liberty Tree!

It will grow as we grow, boys.
It will be as strong as we.
We must cling to our faith, boys,
Faith in the Liberty Tree!

It's a tall old tree and a strong old tree,
And we are the Sons, yes, we are the Sons,
the Sons of Liberty!
