Just To Watch Her Pass By

She's Coming, She's Coming! the little boy cried... As the Grandfather stood to watch Her with pride. That flowing cloth so loved by all, Brought a tear to his eye as he recalled The land that she stood for and just where she had been; His patriotism and love overflowed from within. Why do you cry? The young boy asked, She's beautiful Grandpa flying up on the mast.. You're right my son what you say is so true Just feeling my love for our dear Red, White and Blue!
