Riding Around the Countryside
(sung to the tune of
"Rocking Around the Christmas Tree")

Riding around the countryside
On the hunt for Martin's men
Militiamen hung from every tree
Tavington will win again!

Riding around the countryside
See the horses galloping
Later we'll make some rebels hide
As we do some plundering

Martin gets those sick and frightened
Feelings when he sees
Sabers swinging, men are falling
Death! The losses are appalling!

Riding around the countryside
Win the battle fought today
The dragoons charging speedily
As Tavington leads the way!
