Why Should I Care for the Men of Thames

 Why should I care for the men of thames 
Or the cheating waves of charter'd streams 
Or shrink at the little blasts of fear 
That the hireling blows into my ear 

Tho born on the cheating banks of Thames
Tho his waters bathed my infant limbs 
The Ohio shall wash his stains from me
I was born a slave but I go to be free.
