Gather around the flag my friends;
Gather around it straight and tall,
Gather around it with might and pride;
And let us vow that she will never fall.
Gather around the flag my friends,
Gather around it and stand with me;
Let’s stand with our might, and what is right,
And let’s defend her, and our right to be free.
Let’s gather in peace and pray it won’t cease,
And lets vow that she will never fall;
And we will stand together, now and forever,
We will be there if our country does call.
The price of freedom it is never free,
No matter what is written or said;
Sometimes we must fight, to gain its sight,
And then, it is gained by our fallen dead.
Let’s gather around the red, white and blue,
Like our fathers did once before;
Let’s stand there strong, no matter how long,
And we’ll defend her to the last cannons roar.
