Save Our Flag From Falling

——


To the tune of "Come Ye," by Athol, in Scottish Songs

Up and be ready, boys
  With your gun on your shoulder,
Along with the noble lads
  Who have crossed the border;
Ready to take their stand,
  With gun and sword in hand,
So the Stars and Stripes
  May still wave in Old Glory.

Come away, Come away, the bugle is calling;
March to the fife and drum; save our flag from falling.

Up, lads, if ye be brave,
  Help us our banner wave,
So that our armies
  Be always victorious.
Up and get ready, men,
  Help us our land defend,
For life, liberty, and a flag named Old Glory.

Repeat from Come away.
