The Flag Of The Free - song lyrics 
American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
THE FLAG OF THE FREE. 
Nobly our flag flutters o'er us to-day, Emblem of peace, pledge liberty's sway; Its foes shall tremble and shrink in dismay If ever insulted It be! Our stripes and stars, loved and honored by all, Shall float forever where freedom may call; It still shall be the flap of the free, Emblem of sweet liberty! 
Chorus. Here we will gather, its cause to defend, Let patriots rally and wise counsel lend; It still shall be the flag of the free, Emblem of sweet liberty! 
With it in beauty no flag can compare, All nations honor our banner so fair; If to insult it a traitor should dare, Crushed to the earth let him be! Freedom and progress our watchword to-day, When duty calls who dare disobey? Honor to thee, thou flag of the free, Emblem of sweet liberty!- Chorus.
