An ABC Book for Young Partisans



Liberty Tree where all the colonists met,

A protest place that the British will regret,

We tar and feather the taxers they weep,

Public humiliation they shall meet.



Continental Congress we’re the governing body of the colonies,

Our great political power will put you on your knees,

Send a petition to the king and repeal any act,

We have the power and will never hold back.



Boycott your business is shot,

You taxed all the goods that everyone bought,

We made our own fabric and didn’t buy yours,

So you should learn not to test us, King George.

Patriots who support the war,

King George, you shall be no more,

We extended an olive branch and you rejected,

Now our relationship will be conflicted.

Sugar Act which the nasty parliament passed,

The act allowed officers to take our goods without being harassed,

They took our stuff and that was wrong,

We hate you Britain so now run along!



Tea Act we don’t want to be told what to buy,

Mess with us again and kiss our Donkey goodbye,

New York and Philly forced your ships to turn around,

This is a sign Britain we don’t want you around.
