William Price

              WILLIAM PRICE. 

Air - John Todd. 
Your sharp Treason Bill, Wm. Price, Wm. Price, 
Your sharp Treason Bill, Wm. Price, 
Is a capital ruse 
To put a tight noose 
On the people, while quiet as mice, Wm. Price, 
On the people, while quiet as mice. 

Now's the time to get power, Wm. Price, Wm. Price, 
Now's the time to get power, Wm. Price; 
The Federal arms 
Have removed your alarms, 
And Seward will give you advice, Wm. Price, 
And Seward will give you advice. 

Every dog has his day, Wm. Price, Wm. Price, 
Every dog has his day, Wm. Price, 
And your Know Nothing crew, 
Shrieking red, white and blue, 
Seize office by Union device, Wm. Price, 
Seize office by Union device. 

Why so hard on the South, Wm. Price, Wm. Price, 
Why so hard on the South, Wm. Price, 
She's built Baltimore up: 
She has sweetened your cup, 
And given you many things nice, Wm. Price, 
And given you many things nice. 

And now you would crush her, Wm. Price, Wm. Price, 
And now you would crush her, Wm. Price, 
And burn her fair homes, 
And spires and domes, 
And take all her cotton and rice, Wm. Price, 
And take all her cotton and rice. 

And deluge her fields, Wm. Price, Wm. Price, 
And deluge her fields, Wm. Price, 
With the bright crimson flow, 
Of her children laid low 
In her generous soil, cold as ice, Wm. Price. 
In her generous soil, cold as ice.
