Wake up bAmoys, there's a lGight at the windAmow,
I can hCear someone knGocking on the dooAmr,
There are vAmoices in the street,
And the sDound of running feet,
And they whFisper the wGord, revolutionAm!
There are mAmen coming dGown from the vAmalleys,
There are tCall ships lGying off the coasAmt,
And they cAmarry the light,
In the dDark of the night,
Like a whFisper in the wGind, revolutionAm!
Bring my gAmun and a hGandful of silvAmer,
By the sCea we will gGather for the fighAmt,
It's been sAmo many years,
SDo many tears,
We have lFost once befGore,
Now we'll sAmettle the scoreG,
When our cFannons will rDoar, revolAmution!!!!!

RAoll away the dawn,
RAoll away the dawn and let me sBmee,
The land of the frEee,
Has anything chAanged at all,
SwAeet liberty,
SwAeet liberty is in our hBmands,
It's part of the plEan,
Or is it a stFatGe of mAind?
HAorses and men,
HAorses and men are on the fBmield,
They didn't yEield,
Many have fAallen here,
NAever forget,
NAever forget what they have dBmone,
The time will cEome,
When it will chFanGge agAain,
Never forgAmet!F Am E
