Respect the Flag

We need to all respect the flag,

Because we live in this great country of ours,

With that beautiful flag waving in the breeze,

The one with the stripes and the stars.

We need to stand up and give a salute,

And we need to show our pride,

But there is no room for those who won\'t,

And want to just sit on the side.

Sure there are those who feel differently,

And they have a right to protest,

But they need to do it the right way,

Just like all of the rest.

So please do what\'s right,

Because that\'s the thing to do,

Be proud of our great flag,

The red, white and blue.
