teachstrausshouseyt - viva la 13 colonies كلمات الأغنية
[verse 1]
new england colonies there were four
though today there are two more
connecticut, rhode island, new hampshire
massachusetts the first, and most important for sure
rocky soil kept farms small
the sea was pretty close to all
they built the ships that sail the sea
it helped the economy
in 1620 some pilgrims came
that’s how the mayflower rose to fame
religious freedom for puritans
mass men would make all the rules
they ran the government
rhode islands freedom was even more
freedom to worship was at its core
religion separate from government
as democratic as it went
[chorus]
13 colonies in the new world
settlers under the british rule
3 great regions for them to move to
southern, new england, and middle, all new
for some reasons we will explain
they spread from georgia on up to maine
sailing from england’s shore
they came here looking for more
[verse 2]
the middle colonies there were four
pennsylvania, new york, and more
new jersey and delaware
attracted people from europe
they all flocked to live there
the soil great for crops
in farming wheat and rye were tops
the climate hot to cold
but there was never any gold
new york was settled by the dutch
the king he wanted it so much
new england’s people moving west
the british captured the land, great jobs and trade were the best
the quakers moved for peace
in pennsylvania they found relief
the taxes there were low
william penn let his people know
[chorus]
13 colonies in the new world

[verse 3]
they came here looking for more
southern colonies there were five
they all had land on which to thrive
carolinas and georgia debut
they grew tobacco and rice, virginia, maryland too
indentured servants from europe came
we now look back on it with shame
the slaves were forced to toil
on plantations with rich soil
tobacco grew in maryland
the warm climate meant mosquitoes were bad
the catholics went there to live
they made the slaves do the work
white men the vote they did give
georgia stopped spain spreading north
poor debtors to its shores set forth
cash crops grew under the sun
the king still ruled over everyone
[chorus]

for some reasons we will explain

sailing from england’s shore
they came here looking for more
sailing to a new world, sailing to a new world
sailing to a new world, sailing to a new world
[chorus]
