Ballad of a Winter's Past
Mikaela Davis Lyrics

How does a bastard, orphan, son of a whore
How does a man that society perceives as shameful, starting from such disadvantaged backgrounds, achieve great things?

Go on and on
Continue to accomplish goals and advance despite adversity

Grow into more of a phenomenon
Become a remarkable and notable individual

Watch this obnoxious, arrogant, loudmouth bother
Observe this boisterous, overly self-assured, irritating individual

Be seated at the right hand of the father
Attain a position of great power and influence

Washington hires Hamilton right on site
George Washington offers Alexander Hamilton a job immediately after meeting him

But Hamilton still wants to fight not write
Hamilton is still focused on battle and victory rather than writing documents

Now Hamiltons skill with the quill is undeniable
Hamilton's writing talent is unquestionable

But what do we have in common
But what similarities do we share?

We′re reliable with the Ladies!
We can be counted on to appeal to women

There are so many to deflower!
There are many women to seduce

Ladies!
Women!

Looks, Proximity to power!
Their physical appearance and proximity to those in power are what attracts them

They delighted and distracted him
They brought him pleasure and kept him from focusing on other priorities

Martha Washington named her feral Tomcat after him
Martha Washington named her wild cat after Hamilton

Thats true
That is a fact

1780
The year 1780

A winters ball, and the Schuyler sisters are the envy of all
The Schuyler sisters are admired and sought after at a winter dance

Yo, if you can marry a sister you're rich, son
If you can marry one of these sisters, you'll become wealthy

Is it a quistion of if, Burr, or which one?
The question is whether it's possible to marry one of the sisters, Burr, or which sister to choose?
