  His sword blade gleams and his eye light beams
• 0:09
  and never glanced either in vain. Like the ocean
• 0:13
  tides at our head he rides, the fearless Matt
• 0:16
  Anthony Wayne. Bang, bang, the rifles go. Down
• 0:24
  falls the startled foe. Aim, fire, exclaim his
• 0:28
  eyes. Bang, bang, each gun replies. Our forces
• 0:37
  fill the ground Tramp, tramp, away they go Now
• 0:44
  retreat the beaten foe And many a redcoat here
• 0:49
  tonight The continental scorning Shall never
• 0:53
  meet the blaze of the broad sunlight That shines
• 0:56
  on the morrow morning His sword blade gleams
• 1:02
  and his eye light beams And never glanced either
• 1:05
  in vain Like the ocean tides at our heady rise
• 1:09
  The fearless Matt Anthony Wayne Bang, bang, the
• 1:15
  rifles go Down falls the startled foe Many a
• 1:20
  red coat The continental scorning Shall never
• 1:26
  meet the blaze of the broad sun A light that
• 1:28
  shines of his speech so brief who utters his
• 1:37
  wishes so plain ere he speaks a word the orders

  country's call if we must leave this lifetime
• 2:22
  of pain. And who would shrink from the perilous
• 2:26
  brink when led by Matt Anthony Wing? Rant and
• 2:31
  the bugle sound, our forces fill the ground.

  Aim fire, exclaims his eye. on the morrow morning.

  shot must tell on a red coat well. It will melt
• 3:11
  at a rifle ball rain. Every shot must tell on
• 3:16
  a red coat well. Oh, we anger mad Anthony Wayne.
• 3:27
  The beaten foe.
