Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Waitin',
waitin' for the [G]Redcoats to [D]come
But [G]all I hear in my [D]frozen ear
is ten thousand drums
[G]Ten thousand [D]drums
Johnny, Johnny, [G]don't be afraid
[D]We [G]can whip those red[D]coats
Set[G]tin' in the [D]shade,
[G]settin' in the [D]shade
We've [G]got the best of [D]all the rest
In [G]General Washington
[D]And [G]when we meet those [D]redcoats,
[G]watch those redcoats [D]run
Throw[G]in' down their [D]drum,
[G]throwin' down their [D]drum[Eb]
Listen, listen,
[Ab]Johnny better get your [Eb]gun
Cause [Ab]they ain't wooden sol[Eb]diers
behind [Ab]10 ,000 d[Eb]rums
Behind [Ab]10 ,000 d[Eb]rums
Runnin', runnin',
[Ab]Johnny watch them [Eb]run
We fi[Ab]nally whip those [Eb]redcoats,
finally [Ab]stop those [Eb]drums
We [Ab]stop 10 ,000 [Eb]drums
[Ab]We're the best of [Eb]all the rest,
us [Ab]Yankees, son of a gun
[Eb]We c[Ab]an tell our mammy[Eb]
[Ab]how we made them r[Eb]un
Going [Ab]down their [Eb]drum,
go[Ab]ing down their d[Eb]rum
[Ab]We're the best of [Eb]all the rest,
us [Ab]Yankees, son of a [Eb]gun
[Ab]We can tell our ma[Eb]mmy
[Ab]why we made them r[Eb]un
Go[Ab]ing down their d[Eb]rum
Go[Ab]ing down their d[Eb]rum
[Ab]Ten thousand drums

[Outro 1]
