Oh Flag on the wall,
with your fabric crisp and new.
We watch you wave with the wind-
and pray that you don't fall.

We cross our hearts and sing to you,
tunes of loyalty and honor.
We pledge allegiance, to you flag,
assuring our deepest affection.

Bringing patriotism to every room,
Importance to every yard,
Your red so bright, your blue so bold,
Your beauty outshines everything.

Though it seems we love you most,
when disaster dtrikes,
You represent out free world,
and our victory in war.

With your stars and stripes flying high in the sky,
Our blood runs thick of Yankee Pride.
Remind us to salute you daily,
for the justice and liberty you represent.
