Testo Rascal Ben - Brian Kelley
Testo della canzone Rascal Ben (Brian Kelley), tratta dall'album American Revolution Story Songs
Young Ben ran away from Boston town
With two loaves of bread, three rolls he found
Met a girl named Deb at seventeen
Built a print shop, chased his wildest dreams
Oh, Franklin, what a man was he
Inventor, lover, and a VIP
Hey!
Hey, hey!
Smart and curious, always seeking more
Crafted thirteen virtues to better his core
Not a church man, but believed in God
In Puritan times, he seemed quite odd
Oh, Franklin, what a man was he
Inventor, lover, and a VIP
Hey!
Hey, hey!
Sent to France to beg for ships and gold
Found Madame Helvécius in Brienne so bold
Kept old Ben smiling while his wife waited there
Charmed the French and won the war with flair
Flew a kite with a key in the rain
Nearly killed himself but still used his brain
Lightning rod, bifocals, and a roguish grin
Lived like a king with wine and gin
Gout took his body, but his spirit stayed strong
Till the end, he kept singing his own rebel song
Oh, Franklin, what a man was he
Inventor, lover, and a VIP
Hey!
Hey, hey!
Hey, hey!
Hey!
