Federalist 6 Lyrics

In seventeen eighty-seven with wisdom in his pen

Alexander Hamilton wrote to guide the men

Federalist Number Six a warning loud and clear

To keep our nation united free from strife and fear

He spoke of ancient empires and conflicts they had known

Of leaders filled with envy who fought to claim the throne

Hamilton warned of danger if states should go astray

A fractured federation would lead us all to dismay

Federalist Six oh Federalist Six

Hamilton's message so strong and so fixed

A call for unity to stand as one

Together we'll prosper under the sun

He wrote of human nature and its ambitious drive

Of how without a union it's hard to stay alive

Internal conflicts brewing like storms upon the sea

A united federation the only way to be free

No cap on God his words are still so true

A vision for a nation to see it through and through

In a strong republic with states aligned in peace

We'd find our way to harmony conflicts would cease

Federalist Six oh Federalist Six

Hamilton's message so strong and so fixed

A call for unity to stand as one

Together we'll prosper under the sun

So hear the voice of Hamilton from centuries ago

His Federalist Number Six a guide to help us grow

For in these words of wisdom a future bright and free

A nation strong and mighty for all eternity

Remember Alexander and his prophetic pen

In Federalist Number Six he showed the way back then

A call for unity to keep our land so grand

United we will stand hand in hand
