Schuylerville's a village with a deep history
how it got it’s name that’s no mystery
it was named for Philip Schuyler they liked him very much
he’s not Irish or Italian he’s dddddutch
a community developed it tried to stay alive
partly flattened in 1745
the British once retreated here if you do remember
they raised up the white flag and said I surrender
It was the pitts for the Britts cuz for them it was ova
this was known as the Battle of Saratoga
1831 the peeps were elated
cuz that’s when the village was incorporated
Scuylerville Schuylerville we love this town yea we always will
There’s a house over there that’s not exactly new
just take a little drive down on Highway 32
who used to live there?--history will tell
officers wives and wounded personell
oh yes folks it was a real important home
and now this home is privately owned
it’s a really great place so hey alert the media
