The Star Spangled Banner
Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
This Land is Your Land
|
The sun comes shining as I was strolling The wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling The fog was lifting a voice come chanting This land was made for you and me As I was walkin' - I saw a sign there And that sign said - no tress passin' But on the other side .... it didn't say nothin! Now that side was made for you and me! In the squares of the city - In the shadow of the steeple Near the relief office - I see my people And some are grumblin' and some are wonderin' If this land's still made for you and me. Chorus |
America the Beautiful
O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed His grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
O beautiful for patriot dream,
That sees beyond the years.
Thine alabaster cities gleam,
Undimmed by human tears.
(repeat chorus)
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed His grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
O beautiful for patriot dream,
That sees beyond the years.
Thine alabaster cities gleam,
Undimmed by human tears.
(repeat chorus)
When Johnny Comes Marching Home
When Johnny comes marching home again, Hurrah! Hurrah! We'll give him a hearty welcome then, Hurrah! Hurrah! Oh, the men will cheer the boys will shout The ladies they will all turn out, And we'll all feel gay When Johnny comes marching home. Get ready for the Jubilee, Hurrah! Hurrah! We'll give the hero three times three, Hurrah! Hurrah! Well, the laurel wreath is ready now To place upon his loyal brow, And we'll all feel gay When Johnny comes marching home. In eighteen hundred and sixty-one Hurrah! Hurrah! That was when the war begun, Hurrah! Hurrah! |
In eighteen hundred and sixty-two, Both sides were falling to, And we'll all drink stone wine, When Johnny comes marching home. In eighteen hundred and sixty-three, Hurrah! Hurrah! Old Abe, he ended slavery Hurrah! Hurrah! In eighteen hundred and sixty-three Old Abe, he ended slavery And we'll all drink stone wine, When Johnny comes marching home. In eighteen hundred and sixty-four, Hurrah! Hurrah! Abe called for five hundred thousand more, Hurrah! Hurrah! In eighteen hundred and sixty-five, They talked rebellion--strife; And we'll all drink stone wine When Johnny comes marching home. |
