~MY
COLORS NEVER RUN~
You have seen
me in this nation
And in countries
worldwide
I show who
I am
With dignity
and pride
I've flown
on beaches
And in trenches
with every race
I've made
it to the moon
When I flew
in outer space
I have seen
every battlefield
That there
is to see
I have flown
proudly for sons and daughters
Who believed
in my dignity
I stand for
America
The greatest
nation on earth
And again
I shall fly proudly
To show my
nation's worth
My stars represent
a nation
That is united
as one
And NO ONE
on earth
Will ever
make my colors run
I am loved
by many
I am feared
by many more
I am a piece
of cloth
Who guides
my nation in war
I was there
in Germany
I also flew
in Guam
I led my nation
in Korea
I was there
in Vietnam
I will lead
my nation
As I have
always done
I stand for
Freedom
Because my
colors never run
I will give
HOPE
As I have
done all my life
For every
man child and woman
For every
husband and wife
My stars fly
gallantly
For the states
in the USA
My stripes
are for the colonies
We've come
a long way
I've been saluted
and honored
From shore
to shore
Some call
me "Old Glory"
A name I adore
I am
HOPE, for ONE nation
The land from
where I came
America the
beautiful
The HOME OF
THE BRAVE
