He says, my country’s rights I’ll defend while blood remains in my veins, sir,
And we’ll ne’er desist, but still insist, till the Union I obtain, sir.
When the writ of error it was brought before the House of Lords, sir,
Lord Denman, Campbell and Cottingham did explain the laws, sir,
The Lord Chancellor and Brougham, their schemes were all defeated,
I’m sure the Tories will run mad since Dan is liberated.
So now my friends I will conclude these lines that I have penn’d, sir,
We’ll drink a health unto brave Dan, long may he live and reign, sir,
He’ll plant the Tree of Liberty once more in College Green, sir,
And while life remains brave noble Dan for ever he’ll wear the green, sir.
