The American flag waves to all Proudly and sadly telling her story Of pain, death, bravery, the fight for freedom Tears drip down as she remembers Those who sacrificed their lives For her. She stands as a witness, for all to see, Emblem of virtue, courage and honesty The wind caresses her, Storms threaten to topple her, But steadfast she remains. The star-spangled banner Forever shouting the message Of life, love and liberty. Oh say can you see.
