Sing,Sing,Sing
Stripes and stars you are
Playing with the gentle breeze
Whether the storm at the helm
Tossed about, rippled and torn.
Victorious, flag emerge once again
By gentle withered hands be born
Replaced a new, fresh, clean
Gentle breeze play with me in tune.
None by its side so seems
Confused by denial of others
Stand tall as our Statue Liberty.
For free we stand like none other.
Beaten down we must not be
Come back, emerge victoriously
In ambiance silence
Stand with beauty of old.
Now take the core, this seed
Plant a new with grace and tear
For rich our land so is
natures gifts like none other
Now in tune so sing our song
From golden prairies rich in wheat
And purple mountain tops so peak
Where eagles fly, protect its nest
From seashore to the forests deep
Blooming deserts become a new
Land of freedom, rich you are
In humbleness I raise this flag.
