Billowing in the wind is a flag,
Constructed of colors and stars,
What makes it not a rag?
Visible to the amoeba in cars.
Constructed of colors and stars,
Giving off a sense of pride,
Visible to the amoeba in cars,
In the breeze it shall glide.
Giving off a sense of pride,
Trumping those who are despotic,
In the breeze it shall glide,
Love of it is patriotic.
Trumping those who are despotic,
What makes it not a rag?
Love of it is patriotic,
Billowing in the wind is a flag.
