There's a Star-Spangled Banner wavin' 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, Custer, Washington and Perry
Nathan Hale and Colin Kelly, too
There's a Star-Spangled Banner wavin' somewhere
Wavin' o'er the land of heroes, brave and true
ย
In this war with its 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
For that precious right I'd gladly die
There's a Star-Spangled Banner wavin' somewhere
That is where I want to live when I die
ย
Though I realize I'm 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 wavin' somewhere
In that heaven there should be a place for me
