THERE'S A STAR SPANGLED BANNER WAVING SOMEWHERE

There's a Star Span-gled Ban-ner wav-ing some-where____
in a dis-tant land so man-y miles a-way.___
On - ly Un - cle Sam's great he-roes get to go there
where  I wish that I could al-so live some - day.

I'd see Lin-coln, Cus - ter, Wash-ing-ton and Per-ry
and Nath-an Hale and Co-lin Kel-ley too!_____
There's a Star Span-gled Ban-ner wav-ing some-where,
wav-ing o'er the land of he-roes brave and true.

In this war with its mad schemes of de-struc-tion
of our coun-try fair and our sweet lib-er-ty.
By the mad dic-ta-tors, lead-ers of cor-rup-tion,
can't the U. S. use a moun-tain boy like me?

God gave me the right to be a free A-mer-i-can
and for that pre-cious right I'd glad-ly die.
There's a Star Span-gled Ban-ner wav-ing some-where,
That is where I want to live  when I die.___

Tho' I realize I am crip-pled, that is true, sir!
Please don't judge my cour-age by my twist-ed leg.
Let me show my Un - cle Sam what I can do, sir!
Let me help to bring the ax-is down a peg.

If I do some great deed I will be a he-ro_
and a he-ro brave is what I want to be.
There's a Star Span-gled Ban-ner wav-ing some-where
In that heav-en there should be a place for me.
