Paul Revere - Louis Prima

A-listen, my children, and you all shall hear

The story of the midnight rider, Paul Revere

Said to his buddy, «When they start to march»

«Polish up a lantern in the belfry-arch»

«Hang up one if by land»

«Hang up two if by sea»

Said Revere, «Over here on the opposite shore I’ll be»

A-ready to giddy-up, giddy-up, far and near

Yankee doodle derby, winning, Mister Paul Revere

After that lantern flashed, he hit the road

Stoppin' round at every minuteman’s abode

Gallopin' down each town by Heaven’s light

Future of a nation ridin' hard at night

There was no radio flashing news far and wide

Just a man on a horse on a cross country ride

A-ready to giddy-up, giddy-up, far and near

Yankee doodle derby, winning, Mister Paul Revere

Giddy-up, giddy-up, giddy-up

Giddy-up, giddy-up, giddy-up

That’s the winner, Mister Paul Revere
