I remember every holidayOur whole town lined the streetsWaitin' on the big paradeFrom the curb in their lawn chair seatsAnd one old man always the first to standAnd snap a sharp saluteAnd one by one the crowd aroundWould rise and follow suitFor the streamers flew like eaglesAnd the battle banners wavedFor all the ones who fought and diedTo see Old Glory raisedTo each and every heroWho has ever come and goneThe flags of our fathers carry onThe flags of our fathers carry onMarching bands and the motorcadesPaper flowers and the floatsThe beauty queens and their pageant wavesOh, but what I remember mostWas that one old man always the first to standWith his hand across his heartAnd how his eyes welled up with prideWhen he saw the color guardLetras de cancionesAs the streamers flew like eaglesAnd the battle banners wavedFor all the ones who fought and diedTo see Old Glory raisedTo each and every heroWho has ever come and goneThe flags of our fathers carry onThe flags of our fathers carry onTo each and every heroWho has ever come and goneThe flags of our fathers carry onThe flags of our fathers carry onThe flags of our fathers carry onCarry on From Letras Mania
