about

Paraphrased from a speech of the same name by Democratic candidate William Jennings Bryan at the 1896 DNC.

lyrics

We do not come as aggressors
Our war is not a war of conquest
We fight in defense of our homes,
For our families, and posterity.

We have begged, and they have mocked our calamity.
We have petitioned, petitions scorned.
We have entreated, entreaties disregarded.

We beg no longer
We entreat no more
We petition no further.
We defy.

You shall not press down upon the brow of labor
this crown of thorns.
You shall not crucify mankind
upon a cross of gold.
