1776 Soundtrack Lyrics

He Plays the Violin Lyrics
Martha:
He plays the violin
He tucks it right under his chin
And he bows, oh he bows
For he knows, yes he knows
That it's hi-hi-hi-diddle diddle
It's my heart, Tom and his fiddle
My strings are unstrung
Hi-hi-hi-hi
I am undone

I hear his violin
And I get that feeling within
And I sigh, oh I sigh
He draws near, very near
And it's hi-hi-hi-diddle diddle
Goodbye to the fiddle
My strings are unstrung
Hi-hi-hi-hi
I'm always undone

When heaven calls to me
Sing me no sad eulogy
Say I die, loving bride
Loving wife, loving life

For it was hi-hi-hi-hi-diddle diddle
'Twixt my heart, Tom, and his fiddle
And ever 'twill be
Hi-hi-hi-hi
Through eternity

He plays the violin.

Franklin and Adams:
For it's hi-hi-hi diddle diddle,

Franklin:
God bless the man who can fiddle.

Adams:
And independency!

Franklin and Adams:
For it's hi-hi-hi-hi.
La da da, dum, de.
Through eternity.

He plays the violin.
