Poems (Barbara White)/Save Our Flag From Falling
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.
