I vote to retire it because it is hard to sing and gets butchered at the ball games.
Replace it with something like...
GOD BLESS AMERICA by IRVING BERLIN (Let the heathens rage)
You’re a Grand Old Flag
by George M. Cohan
You’re a grand old flag,
You’re a high flying flag
And forever in peace may you wave.
You’re the emblem of
The land I love.
The home of the free and the brave.
Ev’ry heart beats true
‘neath the Red, White and Blue,
Where there’s never a boast or brag.
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
Keep your eye on the grand old flag.
Something without words by JOHN PHILLIP SOUSA.
This Land Is Your Land by Woody Guthrie (Unfortunately he was too commie to be accepted)
I like this one by CLAUDE KING
This Land Of Yours And Mine
I have seen the warships on Manila Bay watched the sun a setting on the way
I’ve sailed the seven seas I’ve crossed the Great Divide
There’s nothing like this land of yours and mine
There’s nothing like this land yours and my land
From the New York harbor to the Frisco Bay
Up to Mississippi cross the wide Missoury
There’s nothing like this land of yours and mine
Stars and Stripes Forever. The best march ever written.
