The Liberty Bell . . .

Heres a story
Of the Liberty Bell
It cracked the first time it was rung.
They tried to fix it; it cracked again;
It weighed at least a ton!
Then one day while the bell was in Pennsylvania,
People saw it and thought how they were free
The crack . . . . was just like America
We struggled for liberty
The Liberty Bell! . . .ding!
The Liberty Bell! . . .ding!
Thats the way . . . . . it became the Liberty Bell!
Ding da ding ding!
