Let's say it with firecrackers and banners held high, Let's have a real old-fashioned noisy Fourth of July, Don't need any long speeches, Or shouts of hooray, No words can say as much as firecrackers can say (And here they are! The hottest firecrackers in Connecticut! The Holiday Inn Dancers!) We're singing, Singing a song of freedom, Singing a song, For all God's people, Who cry out to be free Free to speak and free to hear, Free from want and free from fear, Sons of freedom far and near who agree, Sing with me, That all God's people All God's people shall be free We're sing- I'm singing a song of freedom, For all people who cry out to be free Don't need any long speeches, Or shouts of hooray, No words can say as much as firecrackers can say
