Elton Britt There's A Star Spangled Banner Waving Somewhere lyrics

There's a star spangled banner waving
Somewhere,
In a distant land so many miles away.
Only Uncle Sam's great heroes get to go there,
Where I wish that I could also live someday.
I'd see Lincoln, Custard, Washington and Perry,
And Nathan Hale and Collin Kelly too!

There's a star spangled banner waving
Somewhere,
Waving o'er the land of heroes brave and true.

In this war with it's mad schemes of destruction,
of our country fair and our sweet liberty.
By the mad dictators, leaders of corruption.
Can't the U.S use a mountain boy like me?
God gave me the right to be a free American,

and for that precocious right I'd gladly die,

There's a star spangled banner waving
Somewhere,
That is where I want to live when I die.
Tho' I realized I am crippled, that is true, sir!
Please don't judge my courage by my twisted leg.
Let me show my Uncle Sam what I can do, sir!
Let me help to bring the Axis down a peg!
If I do some great deed I will be a hero,
and a hero brave is what I want to be.

There's a star spangled banner waving somewhere,
In that heaven there should be a place for me.
