We know the red we want is the red we've got In the old red, white and blue It's the right red, not the wrong red And the old flag knows it, too We've got a true blue red flying overhead Waving free to see us through The only red we want is the red we've got In the old red, white and blue We know the red we want is the red we've got In the old red, white and blue It's a brave red, not a slave red That means liberty to you We know the time's at hand To strike up the band Let us tell the whole world, too The only red we want is the red we've got In the old red, white and blue
