20 Yorktown (The World Turned Upside Down)
[00:04.56] The battle of Yorktown
[00:08.20] 1781
[00:10.45] Monsieur Hamilton
[00:11.72] Monsieur Lafayette
[00:12.97] In command where you belong
[00:13.97] How you say, no sweat
[00:15.48] We're finally on the field
[00:16.50] We've had quite a run
[00:17.99] Immigrants:
[00:18.74] We get the job done
[00:21.76] So what happens if we win?
[00:22.52] I go back to France
[00:23.76] I bring freedom to my people if I'm given the chance
[00:26.29] We'll be with you when you do
[00:27.54] Go lead your men
[00:29.05] I’ll see you on the other side
[00:30.05] 'Til we meet again, let's go!
[00:31.55] I am not throwin' away my shot!
[00:33.56] I am not throwin' away my shot!
[00:35.82] Hey yo, I'm just like my country, I'm young
[00:37.60] Scrappy and hungry
[00:38.59] And I'm not throwin' away my shot!
[00:40.85] I am not throwin' away my shot!
[00:43.37] 'Til the world turns upside down. . .
[00:45.87] 'Til the world turns upside down!
[00:50.39] I imagine death so much it feels more like a memory
[00:52.91] This is where it gets me: on my feet
[00:54.66] The enemy ahead of me
[00:55.92] If this is the end of me, at least I have a friend with me
[00:58.44] Weapon in my hand, a command, and my men with me
[01:00.94] Then I remember my Eliza's expecting me. . .
[01:03.70] Not only that, my Eliza's expecting
[01:05.97] We gotta go, gotta get the job done
[01:08.00] Gotta start a new nation, gotta meet my son!
[01:10.25] Take the bullets out your gun!
[01:11.52] What?
[01:11.77] The bullets out your gun!
[01:12.77] What?
[01:13.02] We move under cover and we move as one
[01:15.27] Through the night, we have one shot to live another day
[01:17.79] We cannot let a stray gunshot give us away
[01:20.30] We will fight up close, seize the moment and stay in it
[01:22.82] It's either that or meet the business end of a bayonet
[01:25.33] The code word is 'Rochambeau' dig me?
[01:27.34] Rochambeau!
[01:28.10] You have your orders now, go, man, go!
[01:29.85] And so the American experiment begins
[01:32.39] With my friends all scattered to the winds
[01:34.40] Laurens is in South Carolina, redefining brav'ry
[01:37.42] We'll never be free until we end slavery!
[01:41.19] When we finally drive the British away
[01:42.20] Lafayette is there waiting
[01:43.45] In Chesapeake Bay!
[01:44.96] How did we know that this plan would work?
[01:46.97] We had a spy on the inside
[01:48.73] That's right
[01:49.23] Hercules Mulligan!
[01:50.74] A tailor spyin' on the British government!
[01:52.24] I take their measurements, information and then I smuggle it
[01:54.75] Up
[01:55.25] To my brother's revolutionary covenant
[01:57.27] I'm runnin' with the Sons of Liberty and I am lovin' it!
[02:00.27] See, that's what happens when you up against the ruffians
[02:02.30] We in the shit now, somebody's gotta shovel it!
[02:04.79] Hercules Mulligan, I need no introduction
[02:06.80] When you knock me down I get the fuck back up again!
[02:09.05] Let's go! Woo!
[02:17.32] Left! Right! Hold!
[02:20.34] Go!
[02:21.59] What! What! What!
[02:39.20] After a week of fighting, a young man in a red coat stands on a parapet
[02:44.49] We lower our guns as he frantically waves a white handkerchief
[02:49.52] And just like that, it's over. We tend to our wounded, we count our dead
[02:53.52] Black and white soldiers wonder alike if this really means freedom
[02:57.29] Not yet
[02:59.30] We negotiate the terms of surrender
[03:01.55] I see George Washington smile
[03:04.07] We escort their men out of Yorktown
[03:06.57] They stagger home single file
[03:08.84] Tens of thousands of people flood the streets
[03:11.86] There are screams and church bells ringing
[03:14.12] And as our fallen foes retreat
[03:15.88] I hear the drinking song they're singing. . .
[03:18.39] The world turned upside down
[03:23.16] The world turned upside down
[03:28.19] The world turned upside down
[03:32.97] The world turned upside down
[03:36.74] Down
[03:38.00] Down, down, down
[03:40.76] Freedom for America, freedom for France!
[03:43.02] Down, down, down
[03:45.52] Gotta start a new nation
[03:46.52] Gotta meet my son
[03:48.02] Down, down, down
[03:50.28] We won!
[03:50.78] We won!
[03:51.29] We won!
[03:52.05] We won!
[03:53.31] The world turned upside down!
