@manor7740: LYRICS: Cold December, blackened sky Thirteen voices would not die Steel resolve in the dead of night He held the line, he called the fight Through the hunger, through the scars Through the smoke beneath the stars George Washington would not break Every breath became a vow When the weak were almost gone He gave them fire to carry on No crown for the general No throne for the man He led us out of the fire And into our own hands George Washington Brought the empire to its knees First to fight for freedom First president of the free Ice below and death ahead Crossing where the brave still bled Delaware beneath the night He drove the rebels into light Trenton cracked, the warning rang Yorktown shook as cannons roared What the crown could never own Was a cause no crown could crush When the dark was closing in He gave the cause its chance to win No crown for the general No throne for the man He led us out of the fire And into our own hands George Washington Brought the empire to its knees First to fight for freedom First president of the free He could have taken power He could have worn the ring He could have built a kingdom He could have called himself king But he turned his back on glory So the republic could rise He left the crown in silence And put the law above his life No crown for the general No throne for the man He led us out of the fire And into our own hands George Washington Brought the empire to its knees First to fight for freedom First president of the free No king No chain No tyrant in his name George Washington Still stands The first free leader of this land replied to 4:02 on 3speak.tv
