Under the Stars and Stripes

High on the world did our fathers of old,         Under the stars and stripes,     Blazon the name that we now must uphold,         Under the stars and stripes.     Vast in the past they have builded an arch     Over which Freedom has lighted her torch.     Follow it! Follow it! Come, let us march         Under the stars and stripes!     We in whose bodies the blood of them runs,         Under the stars and stripes,     We will acquit us as sons of their sons,         Under the stars and stripes.     Ever for justice, our heel upon wrong,     We in the light of our vengeance thrice strong!     Rally together! Come tramping along         Under the stars and stripes!     Out of our strength and a nation's great need,         Under the stars and stripes,     Heroes again as of old we shall breed,         Under the stars and stripes.     Broad to the winds be our banner unfurled!     Straight in Spain's face let defiance be hurled!     God on our side, we will battle the world         Under the stars and stripes!
