A NEW SONG, FOR ALL TRUE HEARTS AND SOUND BOTTOMS, DESIGNED
AGAINST THE CHEROKEES.
(By a Volunteer)
To all those youths, whose noble hearts,
From all things, dear in Charles-Town, parts;
When their country calls, that will obey,
Over the hills and far away.
Chorus
'Tis Lyttelton that doth command,
Then come my sons, with sword in hand;
With him we'll fight, with him we'll stray,
Over the hills and far away.
. . . [7 more verses, with Chorus, "Our Governor, &c."]
