Old Glory

Hoist the sails, catch the winds that blow.

Let us leave this harbor and earn our pay.

For the sun has risen, giving the light of day.

Clear the decks, it is time to sail away

 

Tomorrow will see us in battle;

And the enemy will feel our might.

Our flag will fly above all,

What a glorious sight.
