The “let’s go pay the piper beneath the old liberty tree” line refers to choosing to go die defending liberty. Which is pretty metal considering many of these characters likely died in the war. Put another way: Americans would rather die on their feet than live on their knees.
It was on a record I had as a kid. I think the name of the record was "Yankee Doodle Mickey," and it featured patriotic songs sung by Disney characters.
Can you imagine all of us proud Americans peacefully singing this song outside all state capital buildings and the White House? That would be a sight to see.
We're all Americans. No matter what race, creed, beliefs or whatever other trait we or others assign to us, we're all part of this great nation. We need to remember that fact, today. Especially today. Which is why what you said NEEDs to happen. The government, both state and federal, needs to remember that they serve the people, and are beholden to them.
I agree with the sentiment, but unfortunately something so patriotic will never happen again. The country has been broken in half. Trump destroyed any kind of peaceful discussion about any topic. He created another civil war. It's a slower civil war, but that's exactly what it is. So far we haven't been armed in the streets shooting each other, but that tension is building. If trump wins again it will happen. He will go after the black and brown people instantly, and then he will start going after the organizations that speak out against him. The news papers, the radio stations, the magazines, the tv stations, the websites, the podcasts. Any outlets that speak ill of him. He has said it. He means it. It will quickly turn into a civil war. An actual violent civil war. It will be more than his stupid war on shit he doesn't like. It will come to spilling blood. That is a fact. We all have to vote against him, but we also need to vote in a blue house, and keep a blue senate so we can finally get rid of the electoral college. That's the only way to keep our democracy.
I love the admirals' reaction to everyone saying goodnight to him. "Yes, yes, goodnight you troublemakers, you'll all pay for this later but it's too late now, I'm going back to bed."

“Well, boys,’ said a voice, so cold one hardly knew whether he spoke in anger or not, ‘you’ve had a fine, pleasant evening for your Indian caper, haven’t you? But mind . . . you’ve got to pay the fiddler yet.”
@@slworking2 So, what's wrong with that? By the standards of their time, the people who took part in the American Revolution and their leaders were considered liberal.
Really? Guess who came up with the first mandatory vaccination: George Washington, to prevent smallpox. You're welcome for your good health, provided by your forefathers.
Johnny Tremain really isn’t a very educational novel. It’s set in the lead up to the Revolution, sure, but all it really tells people is that the Sons of Liberty met in secret and planned things and that the Battles of Lexington and Concord happened. Most American kids of any generation know that by the time they hit fifth grade.

Spartan 212 I am surprised that teachers still show this in history class or social studies. I'm 29 years old now. Since this is a movie about a group of men having the right to bear arms to defend themselves in a time where everyone is becoming liberal with ditacting what you can or cannot say using the term "politically correct" or trying to ban guns so ppl who are mature and responsible enough and do use it to defend themselves will have it taken away then they can't defend themselves. But if you liked the movie. I suggest reading the book. The book is fantastic
@@jimmylondo4552 Nobody is trying to ban guns altogether, nor is anyone trying to take guns away from responsible people who know how to use them properly, as you imply. All we want are stricter firearms regulations to keep them out of the hands of people who should never be trusted with deadly weapons, like those with criminal records, and/or histories of violence and/or mental illness, because such persons are more likely to use such weapons, not for self defense, but for committing mass murder, like in the shootings at schools, where teachers, staffs, and students alike are killed or wounded. (Columbine, Uvalde, etc.) The killers in those cases were allowed to have guns, even though they were already violent and disturbed individuals. Background checks would have kept all firearms out of their possession and would have prevented them from murdering on such grand scales. Background checks have been used before and they do work. Before you start citing the Second Amendment guarantee of "the right of the people to keep and bear arms," let me remind that this right only applies to the right of each state to maintain "a well regulated Militia" for its own protection. Unfortunately, too many people dwell on the second half of the amendment (the "right of the people to keep and bear arms" clause), and completely ignore the first half (the "well regulated Militia" cause). Amendment 2 was meant to be applied COLLECTIVELY, NOT INDIVIDUALLY. It was never intended to be a license for any lunatic to obtain as many guns as he or she wants, without a proper permit, a reasonable background check, or being carefully trained in the correct use of a firearm. In fact, the biggest supporters of firearms regulations are LEGITIMATE GUN OWNERS, and incidentally so was the NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION (NRA), back in the day.

I read the book (and re-read it a hundred times) and always pictured Lavinia in my mind. I imagined how the silversmith's apprentice's burned hand looked. And now, almost 60 years later, they want me to BUY or RENT the movie I never saw? I can't believe there's no semi-legal copy around this place.
I had to read “Johnny Tremain” in 1967 or ‘68 but I think I watched this a few years earlier. Even at the age of 10 or so, I thought it was a little silly how one or two men just break into song while marching and soon all the marchers and bystanders are belting this out in perfect unison - but regardless, it was still catchy and memorable. That’s why I just searched for it, to hear it again, 60+ years later.
I watched this in either high school or middle school years ago. I still sing along when I hear it in the background music of Liberty Square at the Magic Kingdom.
I remember seeing this movie in elementary school, and definitely recall the catchy tune. But this film says a lot more about what people in the 1950s thought of the American Revolution than any kind of accurate portrayal of that period in history.
Exactly what part of this was historically inaccurate? It must admitted that there were none of todays sociopathic weazels in so-called 'reality' flims of the period. Of course the moral fiber of the country was much stronger then than.
For one thing they were not protesting the British raising the taxes on tea; they were protesting them LOWERING IT. A half dozen Massachusetts businessmen were getting rich smuggling tea & undercutting the competition. Lowering the tax would make them less competitive. So they gave a bunch of local thugs some alcohol & money to dump the King’s tea in Boston Harbor. All in the name of “freedom”. Our schools teach propaganda, not history.
@@BOORAGG I enjoy the film very much but it is inaccurate. There were three ships not one. None of the bigger leaders were there (i. e. Sam Adams, etc), they were at another location for what we would call Plausible Deniability. Not all of them were dressed as “Indians”, there was a good sized crowd watching from the dock, it took I believe about three hours, whole chests, once axed open were thrown in the water not bags, the tea was cakes not leaf tea as you would use to brew. As I said, however none of that really matters to me, I like this production very much.
Walt Disney himself was patriotic and his love for the United States was well shown in these movies. The fact is this movie came out in 1957 and Walt was a producer for this film. This film was very good and from it - the strong sense of patriotism especially with this scene. Walt Disney was one hell of a patriot.
He also tried to enlist during World War I when he was a teenager but was rejected because of his age so he joined the Red Cross Ambulance Corps instead.
I saw parts of this movie in 7th grade Social Studies (This year) and it became stuck in my head. So why not listen to it? It bothered me that some of the words stuck in my head were murmurs because I didn't know all of the words. :P
Ok Mr. Adams, I hate to do this, but I have to cite you for marching without a permit, singing a song not on the approved government list, breaking the allowable decibel level of the city ordinance, using an open flame without a fire permit, and open container.
But the greatest outrage is that, in insolent defiance of The King's Decree, none of you are wearing masks or even trying to stay 6ft apart! It'll be the gallows for that, I tell you!
Me too! And it just kept coming back to me thinking about the time I first saw this movie in 5th grade and I loved it but couldn't remember what movie it was. I'm glad I found it!!
I accidentally was singing this out loud bc it's such a nice catchy song and my sister was staring at me *"history is my favorite class leave me alone"*
I watched this in history class in 1996, never saw it or heard it since, and this song all of a sudden popped into my head today. I sang it and searched fir it and the refrain was exactly how I sang it note for note! What the hell! That’s a catchy song that I heard it once and remembered it 24 years later!
"We've just committed a major crime that would bankrupt most of us, which for this time period would land us in debtors prison for life." " YEAH! LET'S PARADE DOWN THE STREETS AT NIGHT BANGING A DRUM AND SINGING THAT COREOGRAPHED SONG WE'VE PRACTICED FOR MONTHS! " Musicals are wild.
Our history teacher had us watch this back in 8th grade and a year later I went to Disney World and I heard this song in Liberty Square because it's on the area loop and I sung it and my parents are like "what is this and why do you know what this is" lmaoooo
+Elena Barker It was songs like this that lead our founding fathers into battle. It's part of us, its part of the American Experience. It brought people with differences together for a common cause - Freedom and liberty. Listen to the lyrics - if more people listened, maybe the country wouldn't be in the state it is today.
I was 9 years old when I watched the Scarecrow. I was a girl and loved all of those Disney bad boys; Scarecrow, Zorro, Robin Hood, Mike Fink and who was that other guy? Davy something?
I remember seeing this in the 3rd grade in 2007. My teacher always put on movies that revolved around the topic we were learning about. When we did the American Revolution, we watched this. It's still great and it brought back so many memories of Mrs. Simmons' third grade.
I just finished reading the book for the first time and it's probably the coolest novel I have read in a long time!!!---And I have been reading since the 5th grade. "Johnny Tremain" is actually the main reason why I joined the US Army and wanted to live the life of a solider before I got too old. I have been trained as an Infantrymen @ Fort Hood. I just finished the book and I am letting it settle in before I start the movie in a couple of days. I hope they remake this someday and stick to the main source and dont go woke with it, because Disney used to be so proud of making American frontiermens movies and about American history, about wild Indians and pirates and the Wild West. I miss those days as a kid and this was the only version of Johnny ever made. Thank you for sharing this
Wow I had this song in my head from the early 80s. We watched this movie in school. I had no idea it was called Johnny Tremain! I just googled Sons of Liberty song. thank you for uploading this!

Sons of Liberty still live.
The tree of liberty is very thirsty right now
Needs watered with the blood of tyrants.
Very *thirsty*

I can’t believe Disney Plus doesn’t have this movie available. I want to watch it again!!!
They don't want folks to love America
Doesn't advance their narrative. It might remind some Americans of what we're about.

I heard this song just once when watching the film in 1957. I still remember the tune and the chorus accurately after 64 years.
Same here, the song has randomly popped into my head throughout the last 65 years. I also had the plastic Liberty Tree token coin from a cereal box.
My mother has been listening for 61 years and tonight I have heard it for the first time and I am honored by it - This is a true masterpiece

One of Disney's most underrated movies. It deserves a theatrical re-release.
It does and I agree, tho Disney NOW will likely fuck it up and create major inaccuracies
Yeah, but the current Disney Corp would have to make it super liberal.

I read the book (and re-read it a hundred times) and always pictured Lavinia in my mind. I imagined how the silversmith's apprentice's burned hand looked. And now, almost 60 years later, they want me to BUY or RENT the movie I never saw? I can't believe there's no semi-legal copy around this place.
This popped into my head today and I couldn't for the life of me think of the movie. Thank you for uploading this. Turns out it was a Disney film.
"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." Thomas Jefferson
That time is rapidly approaching.
As a boy growing up - my father would have me watch this, and now, I feel like this is my life journey - so thankful for this recording.
I had to read “Johnny Tremain” in 1967 or ‘68 but I think I watched this a few years earlier. Even at the age of 10 or so, I thought it was a little silly how one or two men just break into song while marching and soon all the marchers and bystanders are belting this out in perfect unison - but regardless, it was still catchy and memorable. That’s why I just searched for it, to hear it again, 60+ years later.
I actually own this movie I am 13 years old and this song is my favorite song on earth
DEATHLORD218 010101010 Encouraging to hear.
I watched this in either high school or middle school years ago. I still sing along when I hear it in the background music of Liberty Square at the Magic Kingdom.
He's 17 now.
Hope 17 is treating you well
Happy 18th Birthday! Stay out of trouble.
The part that transitions into the orchestra sends chills down my spine
I remember seeing this movie in elementary school, and definitely recall the catchy tune. But this film says a lot more about what people in the 1950s thought of the American Revolution than any kind of accurate portrayal of that period in history.
Exactly what part of this was historically inaccurate? It must admitted that there were none of todays sociopathic weazels in so-called 'reality' flims of the period. Of course the moral fiber of the country was much stronger then than.
For one thing they were not protesting the British raising the taxes on tea; they were protesting them LOWERING IT. A half dozen Massachusetts businessmen were getting rich smuggling tea & undercutting the competition. Lowering the tax would make them less competitive. So they gave a bunch of local thugs some alcohol & money to dump the King’s tea in Boston Harbor. All in the name of “freedom”.
Our schools teach propaganda, not history.
@@BOORAGG I enjoy the film very much but it is inaccurate. There were three ships not one. None of the bigger leaders were there (i. e. Sam Adams, etc), they were at another location for what we would call Plausible Deniability. Not all of them were dressed as “Indians”, there was a good sized crowd watching from the dock, it took I believe about three hours, whole chests, once axed open were thrown in the water not bags, the tea was cakes not leaf tea as you would use to brew. As I said, however none of that really matters to me, I like this production very much.
This got stuck in my head after we watched the movie in social studies. My teacher warned us before watching it. I should have listened to him.
i know
This is like the American version of Do You Hear the People Sing.
I watched this in 7th grade civics and I can't get the song out of my head
Walt Disney himself was patriotic and his love for the United States was well shown in these movies.
The fact is this movie came out in 1957 and Walt was a producer for this film. This film was very good and from it - the strong sense of patriotism especially with this scene.
Walt Disney was one hell of a patriot.
He also tried to enlist during World War I when he was a teenager but was rejected because of his age so he joined the Red Cross Ambulance Corps instead.
The 6 people who disliked this are half King George III and half Benedict Arnold
Except for Arnold's leg.
James Denoia Arnold the traitor!
If this film were made today, 1/2 of them would be gay, 1/5 would be transgendered and the rest would be black and Hispanic.
Yup
And half Hillary, half Liberal.
This is what Disney used to put out, history and promoting America. What happened?? This was good stuff.
MrAzrancher What happened was they started having amazing music finally in their movies, thanks to Alan Menken
It is phony CRAP Good luck if you believe this swill.
AM does using derogatory terms to belittle others make you feel better?
we have a so-called president who pledges allegiance to foreign dictators instead of his own country.
@T Wilson
I don’t think so. Are you talking about the US? If so, on what basis do you claim this?
I miss the old Walt Disney movies. No DEI BS in them.
I still watch it on DVD
I saw parts of this movie in 7th grade Social Studies (This year) and it became stuck in my head. So why not listen to it? It bothered me that some of the words stuck in my head were murmurs because I didn't know all of the words. :P
10th grade wow
Sameee
i see youve graduated now
Ok Mr. Adams, I hate to do this, but I have to cite you for marching without a permit, singing a song not on the approved government list, breaking the allowable decibel level of the city ordinance, using an open flame without a fire permit, and open container.
You forgot nailing something without a building permit
...and don't even think about getting married without a government license 🤯
I am studying Samuel Adams for my biography and I will be him in a re enactment
@@darwin2nunez7 great! ccan you post the reinactment?
But the greatest outrage is that, in insolent defiance of The King's Decree, none of you are wearing masks or even trying to stay 6ft apart! It'll be the gallows for that, I tell you!
Who else thinks this should be played in history class?
It was when I was a kid! One of my favorites growing up!!
@@JuricksEnterprise was what?
@@showman139
Played in history classes.
@michaelpalmieri7335 That is awesome. Never saw it until I was an adult.
@@showman139
Frankly, I've never seen it at all, not even in school. I've only seen clips of it on the Disney Channel and on TH-cam.
this song should be used today, it has a message that can touch the hearts of a lot of Americans.
Best American Song Ever!!! I remember every word from grade school.
I learned about this in 7th grade and I still remember this 🥺
This song is good. Today is the 10 time I've listened to this song.
I saw this movie on "Wonderful World of Disney" in 1958 and have never forgotten
the song I can't believe what liberalism has done to Walt's dream.
15 Redcoats disliked the militia
20 now. Salty fuckers.
Democrats
bitchinfussincussin or Republicans. Who knows?
SIXTY NINE REDCOATS
I keep thinking of this song whenever I think about how hard the Ukrainians are resisting tyranny and they are succeeding.
I used to watch this movie over and over again when I was a child. I found out that my uncle was part of the society Sons of Liberty.
My dad took us kids to watch this back in the early 60s. He taught us about patriotism . him and mom. God rest their souls.
I was in 5th grade when I heard this song
***** I'm in 5th grade now and we just finished the movie
Me too! And it just kept coming back to me thinking about the time I first saw this movie in 5th grade and I loved it but couldn't remember what movie it was. I'm glad I found it!!
Me too!!!
3rd
Wow I've come a long way going into 9th grade now and I dont ever remember this sheesh im getting old
Tree needs watering
+Jared Calabrese
Aye
I accidentally was singing this out loud bc it's such a nice catchy song and my sister was staring at me
*"history is my favorite class leave me alone"*
same it's my favorite class
My social studies teacher showed us this movie yesterday and everyone had it in their head and I’m gonna send this to them
I watched this in history class in 1996, never saw it or heard it since, and this song all of a sudden popped into my head today. I sang it and searched fir it and the refrain was exactly how I sang it note for note! What the hell! That’s a catchy song that I heard it once and remembered it 24 years later!
I watched this all the time, love it!
The Boston Tea Party happened 247 years ago today.
I taught the song TheLiberty Tree to my intermediate boys in a program about music about America.
I had this song stuck in my head all day and I loved it!!!!😸😸😸
I Watched The Movie On Tuesday And When I Heard This Song For The First Time, I Just Thought “This Is Some EPIC Music.”
"We've just committed a major crime that would bankrupt most of us, which for this time period would land us in debtors prison for life."
" YEAH! LET'S PARADE DOWN THE STREETS AT NIGHT BANGING A DRUM AND SINGING THAT COREOGRAPHED SONG WE'VE PRACTICED FOR MONTHS! "
Musicals are wild.
i miss patriotism.
big brother
Patriotism is government by the people, not the corporations.
plenty of it around east tenn.
bro you miss propaganda lmaooo
omi god yeah they are
Oh trust me we have lots of it in Central Alabama
great song! Im 74 & this song still rings in my mind from time to time. thnks for posting.
saw this this year in social studies best movie ever
This is the battle cry the American people need today! Especially with all the craziness going on today
For those of you that didn't know, the girl on the right of the screen at 2:21 is Sharon Disney, Walt's adopted daughter.
Who else watched this in grade school back in the 1970’s?? Loved this movie!
Our history teacher had us watch this back in 8th grade and a year later I went to Disney World and I heard this song in Liberty Square because it's on the area loop and I sung it and my parents are like "what is this and why do you know what this is" lmaoooo
We watched this In class at the beginning of the year. Gonna be a high schooler next year wish me luck.
I watched this today in history ✌️ I rlly like this song. Why?… have know idea😂🙈👑
Same
+Elena Barker It was songs like this that lead our founding fathers into battle. It's part of us, its part of the American Experience. It brought people with differences together for a common cause - Freedom and liberty. Listen to the lyrics - if more people listened, maybe the country wouldn't be in the state it is today.
+Elena Barker Same.
Omg lol same :)
same i cant get it out of my head🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Just watched this for our class and this goes so hard
Thank you for uploading this!
Saw this on our old B&W telly, when it first aired. Great stuff.
So did I.
It's a tall old tree and a strong old tree...
Watched this just last Tuesday!
Ofc I was the only student in class!
Oop
I watched this in social studies in 5th grade so good for 1950s
SECOND best musical marching moment in Disney! Just edging out Follow Me Boys and right behind Heart of Oak!
I was 9 years old when I watched the Scarecrow. I was a girl and loved all of those Disney bad boys; Scarecrow, Zorro, Robin Hood, Mike Fink and who was that other guy? Davy something?
I saw this in school long ago, it's a classic and I still enjoy it!
Think it's time everyone in America sit down and watch this then it's time we throw the tea over the ship
This is a Disney movie, so I’m surprised it’s not on Disney plus
With their present political positioning is it really THAT surprising?
I remember seeing this in the 3rd grade in 2007. My teacher always put on movies that revolved around the topic we were learning about. When we did the American Revolution, we watched this. It's still great and it brought back so many memories of Mrs. Simmons' third grade.
I miss this Disney
man I could watch that thing for ever
I sing this through the day and people start to say you're not the Sons of Liberty are the daughters of liberty and I'm like I don't give a f***
Lol same. Oh well. XD
Back when Disney was a National Treasure! So sad what it has become!!
#Happy4thofJuly Warts and all.
I just finished reading the book for the first time and it's probably the coolest novel I have read in a long time!!!---And I have been reading since the 5th grade. "Johnny Tremain" is actually the main reason why I joined the US Army and wanted to live the life of a solider before I got too old. I have been trained as an Infantrymen @ Fort Hood. I just finished the book and I am letting it settle in before I start the movie in a couple of days. I hope they remake this someday and stick to the main source and dont go woke with it, because Disney used to be so proud of making American frontiermens movies and about American history, about wild Indians and pirates and the Wild West. I miss those days as a kid and this was the only version of Johnny ever made. Thank you for sharing this
Love this ❤️ God bless America🇺🇲
@monroefisher1288 ♥️
Listen to this song every 4th of July! It's 2016 and I am still listening to it. lol :) Happy 4th!
We're watching this in my AP history class
Wow I had this song in my head from the early 80s. We watched this movie in school. I had no idea it was called Johnny Tremain! I just googled Sons of Liberty song. thank you for uploading this!
I WALK WITH THEM
Hey I remember this film, I remember watching this in 5th with many other 5th grade class together, when we’re studying the American Revolution.
LYRCS:
Plant the seed in our homeland, boys. Let it grow where all can see
Feed it with our devotion, boys. Call it the Liberty Tree
It’s a tall old Tree
And a strong old Tree
And we are the Sons
Yes, we are the Sons
The Sons of Liberty
Save it from the storm, boys. Water down its roots with tea
And the sun will always shine on the old Liberty Tree
It’s a tall old Tree
And a strong old Tree
And we are the Sons
Yes, we are the Sons
The Sons of Liberty
March along with the piper, boys. We were born forever free
Let’s go pay the piper, boys, beneath the Liberty Tree
It’s a tall old Tree
And a strong old Tree
And we are the Sons
Yes, we are the Sons
The Sons of Liberty.
Pay the price they’re asking, boys. Always pay the tyrant’s fee
Never give up the struggle, boys. Fight for the Liberty Tree
It’s a tall old Tree
And a strong old Tree
And we are the Sons
Yes, we are the Sons
The Sons of Liberty
Stand for the rights of man, boys. Stand against all tyranny
Hang the lamps of freedom, boys, high on the Liberty Tree
It’s a tall old Tree
And a strong old Tree
And we are the Sons
Yes, we are the Sons
The Sons of Liberty
And it will grow as we grow, boys. It will be as strong as we
We must cling to our faith, boys-faith in the Liberty Tree
It’s a tall old Tree
And a strong old Tree
And we are the Sons
Yes, we are the Sons
The sons of liberty.
Thanks man. You deserve respect.
Hearing this song again all these years later is a trip
I saw this movie in 5th grade and I'm still in 5th grade! Love the song but can't find it for download on iTunes. :(
