Wrongly accoused of being a complete sell-out, this song praises the brave leg of Benedict Arnold -- without which we would all have bad teeth and be speaking the King's English.
there's a shrine, on a lonely hill side
but the shrine is not a grave!
no, the shrine, on the lonely hill side
is to Benedict Arnold's leg!
One Good Leg! 2x
put your ear to the ground, hear the sound
of Benedict Arnold's...leg!
on the grounds, at Saratoga, New York
it was destiny they say
shining bright, cast in a golden light
Benedict's leg led the way!
One Good Leg! The Republic Saved!
put your ear to the ground, hear the sound
of Benedict's famous leg...
