Don't tread on me Said, "Don't tread on me" Liberty or death What we so proudly hail? Once you provoke her Rattling of her tail Never begins it Never, but once engaged Never surrenders Showing the fangs of rage Said, "Don't tread on me" So be it, threaten no more To secure peace is to prepare for war So be it, settle the score Touch me again for the words that you will hear evermore Hey Don't tread on me Love it or leave it She with the deadly bite Quick is the blue tongue Forked as a lightning strike Shining with brightness Always on surveillance (The eyes, they never close) Emblem of vigilance Ooh, no, no, no Said, "Don't tread on me" So be it, threaten no more To secure peace is to prepare for war So be it, settle the score Touch me again for the words that you will hear evermore Don't tread on me So be it, threaten no more To secure peace is to prepare for war Liberty or death What we so proudly hail? Once you provoke her Rattling of her tail So be it, threaten no more To secure peace is to prepare for war So be it, settle the score Touch me again for the words that you will hear evermore Don't tread on me
