We'll bake the dough-face with our vote, Who stood the scorching when we wrote; And paler than the milky way, We'll bake the plastic face of CLAY. The tyrant's grapple, &c. Our vote shall teach all statesmen law, Who in the Southern harness draw; So well contented to be slaves, They fain would prove their fathers knaves! The tyrant's grapple, &c. We'll not provoke our wives to use A power that we through fear abuse; His mother shall not blush to own One voter of us for a son. The tyrant's grapple, by our vote, We'll loosen from our brother's throat; With Washington we here agree, Whose MOTHER taught him to be free! THE LIBERTY BALL. G.W.C. Air, "Rosin the Bow." [Music] Come all ye true friends of the nation, Attend to humanity's call; Come aid the poor slave's liberation, And roll on the liberty ball-- And roll on the liberty ball-- And roll on the liberty ball, Come aid the poor slave's liberation, And roll on the liberty ball.

The question of test is now turning, And freedom or slavery must fall, While hope in the bosom is burning, We'll roll on the liberty ball; We'll roll on the liberty ball, &c. Ye freemen attend to your voting, Your ballots will answer the call; And while others attend to _log-rolling_, We'll roll on the liberty ball-- We'll roll on the liberty ball, &c.
