My name is Richard Henry Lee
Virginia is my home
My name is Richard Henry Lee
Virginia is my home
And may my horses turn to glue
If I can't deliver up to you
The resolution on independency
For I am FFV
The first family
In the sovereign colony
Of Virginia
Yes, the FFV
The oldest family
In the oldest colony
In America
And may the British burn my land
If I can't deliver to your hand
The resolution on independency
You see, it's here a Lee, there a Lee
And everywhere a Lee, a Lee

The FFV
The first family
In the sovereign colony
Of Virginia
And may my wife refuse my bed
If I can't deliver, as I said
The resolution on independency
John Adams:
(Spoken modest-Lee. God help us.)
Benjamin Franklin:
(He will, John. He will.)
They say that God in heaven
Is everybody's God
I'll admit that God in heaven
Is everybody's God
But I tell you John, with pride
God leans a little on the side
Of the Lees, the Lees of old Virginia
You see it's here a Lee, there a Lee
And everywhere a Lee, a Lee
Here a Lee, there a Lee
And everywhere a Lee
(Look out, there's Arthur Lee! Bobby Lee! And General Lighthorse Harry Lee! Willy Lee! Jesse Lee!)
Benjamin Franklin:
(And Richard H.?)
Richard Henry Lee:
(That's me!)
And may my blood stop running blue
If I can't deliver up to you
The resolution on independency
Yes, sir, by God it's
Here a Lee, there a Lee
Come on, boys, join in with me!
Here a Lee, there a Lee
Benjamin Franklin:
(When do you leave?)
Richard Henry Lee:
(Immediate-Lee!)
Here a Lee, there a Lee
Benjamin Franklin:
(When do you return?)
Richard Henry Lee:
(Short-Lee!)
Here a Lee, there a Lee
And I'll come back triumphant-Lee!
Here a Lee, there a Lee
Everywhere a Lee, a Lee
Forward, ho!
