Friend Of The Flag

There's people livin' in fear of a sickle and hammer

I was born for the ensign, now I wave that Yankee banner

Pride ain't so ugly, hate ain't so young

And it ain't so far, this country's come

But I'm a friend of the flag, I hope you understand

I'm a pilgrim on the water, all the way from England

The tall ships sail on through Into the harbor

Dark skins on the deck

But the immigrant, he works hard here

Race ain't a color, white ain't the world

But I still love my American girl

I'm a friend of the flag, I hope you understand

I'm a pilgrim on the water, all the way from England

And I married Miss America and gave her all I had

I'm a born again American, a friend of the flag

And you paid the price, the day you hunted buffalo

And you've just begun to tell us what the Hopi told us long ago

Peace in the heart shelters your life

No roof over doubt when the spirit flies

I'm a friend of the flag, I hope you understand

I'm a pilgrim on the water, all the way from England

And I married Miss America and gave her all I had

I'm a born again American, a friend of the flag

Hold on, sail on, friend of the flag

Hold on, sail on, friend of the flag
