Underneath the stars,
John Paul Jones did fight.
Underneath the stars,
Jim Bowie lost his life.
Underneath the stars,
Fort Sumter fell to Reb's,
Underneath the stars,
John Booth shot Lincoln dead.
Underneath the stars,
That fill the evening skies,
Underneath the stars,
Upon our flag that flies.
Underneath the stars,
For freedom men have died.
Underneath the stars.
Underneath the stars,
The Sioux killed "Yellow-hair".
Underneath the stars,
The Yanks fought "Over There".
Underneath the stars,
June 4th became D-Day,
Underneath the stars,
Flew one Enola Gay.
Underneath the stars,
That fill the evening skies,
Underneath the stars,
Upon our flag that flies.
Underneath the stars,
For freedom men have died.
Underneath the stars.
Underneath the stars,
Troops landed at Pusan.
Underneath the stars,
Blood flowed in old Saigon.
Underneath the stars,
The Persian Gulf War raged.
Underneath the stars,
The Towers fell one day.
Underneath the stars,
That fill the evening skies,
Underneath the stars,
Upon our flag that flies.
Underneath the stars,
For freedom men have died.
Underneath the stars.
Underneath the stars,
Our Sailors guard the seas.
Underneath the stars,
Fight "Devil-dog" Marines.
Underneath the stars,
Our Airmen slip earth's bonds.
Underneath the stars,
The Army rolls along.
Underneath the stars,
That fill the evening skies,
Underneath the stars,
Upon our flag that flies.
Underneath the stars,
For freedom men have died.
