There's people live in fear
Of a sickle and hammer
I was born for the ensign
Now I wave that Yankee banner
Pride ain't so ugly
Hate ain't so young
And it ain't so far
This country's come

But I'm a friend of the flag
I hope you understand
I'm a pilgrim on the water
All the way from
England.

The tall ships sail on through
Into the harbour
Dark skins on the deck
But the immigrant
He works hard here
Race ain't a colour
White ain't the world
But I still love
My American girl

I'm a friend of the flag
I hope you understand
I'm a pilgrim on the water
All the way from
England
And I married Miss America
And gave her all I had
I'm a born again American
A friend of the flag

And you paid the price
The day you hunted buffalo
And you've just begun to tell us
What the Hopi told us
Long ago
Peace in the heart
Shelters your life
No roof over doubt
When the spirit flies

I'm a friend of the flag
I hope you understand
I'm a pilgrim on the water
All the way from
England
And I married Miss America
And gave her all I had
I'm a born again American
A friend of the flag

Hold on, sail on
Friend of the flag
Hold on, sail on
Friend of the flag

    "Everyday I've woken up long before the sun

  • Desperation Train
    "Thereabouts I came across another empty hand
    Another tin cup shaken by some raggedy old man
    Acting blind and keeping time with his thin white cane
