In that heaven there should be a place for me.ġ - Transcribed from the Decca record 6059 sung my Jimmy Wakely June 1942, and listing the lyricist as 'Paul Roberts' and composed by 'Shelby Darnell', both pseudonyms for Bob Miller. If I do some great deed I will be a hero, Let me help to bring the Axis (9) down a peg. Let me show my Uncle Sam what I can do, sir, Please don't judge my courage by my twisted leg.

Though I realize I'm crippled, that is true, sir, God gave me the right to be a free American,Īnd for that precious right I'd gladly die. Of our country fair and our sweet liberty,īy the mad dictators, leaders of corruption,Ĭan't the U. In this war with its mad schemes of destruction, Waving o'er the land of heroes brave and true. I'd see Lincoln (3), Custer (4), Washington (5) and Perry (6),Īnd Nathan Hale (7) and Colin Kelly (8), too. Where I wish that I could also live some day. Only Uncle Sam's great heroes get to go there, There's a Star-Spangled Banner waving somewhere, Song: There's A Star-Spangled Banner Waving Somewhere Tweet Follow A Star-Spangled Banner Waving Somewhere, WW2 song lyrics There's A Star-Spangled Banner Waving Somewhere, song lyrics of World War 2
