[Verse 1]
Yes, we'll rally 'round the flag, boys
Rally once again
Shouting the battle cry of freedom
Rally from the hillside
Gather from the plain
Shouting the battle cry of freedom

[Chorus]
The Union forever, hurrah boy hurrah
Down with the traitor and up with the star
While we rally 'round the flag, boys
Rally once again
Shouting the battle cry of freedom

[Verse 2]
We will welcome to our numbers
The loyal, true and brave
Shouting the battle cry of freedom
And although he may be poor
Not a man shall be a slave
Shouting the battle cry of freedom

[Verse 3]
So we're springing to the call
From the east and from the west
Shouting the battle cry of freedom
And we'll prove a loyal crew
To the land we love the best
Shouting the battle cry of freedom
