Thomas Paine
Thomas Paine
United States a Founding Father
Born in Norfolk an honest English man
Me proud to be part of a true Ameri can
No summer soldier or sunshine patriot
Spoke what he thought treasure no idiot
Tyranny like hell is not so easily conquered
harder the glorious conflict amour armoured
Still being inspiration in the army of freedom
his memory surely no not just my poor poem
Lover of freedom bringing common sense
the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph
Hater of all the established churches
Lover of the native Indian Iroquois
But no Christian burial for him
No Christian church would receive his body for burial
