souEu n. Wore No Flag Upon HI,

SouEt He Wore No Flag Upon HIS
Coat, He Wore IL In His Heart.
A youth stood on the corner where
a crowd was talking loud,
And all but he upon their coats wore
U. s. flags SO proud,
And while they uttered words OF
scorn for every pacifist,
A recruiting sergeant came along and
asked them to enlist.
Each one looked at the other and
some few turned away;
At last the youth who wore no flag
looked up and he did say:
CHORUS:
I'll answer to my country's call, SO
take me IL you will.
For every lad who's brought up
right his duty should fulfill:
have a mother to support, but still
I'll do my part
I have no flag upon my coat, ! wear
mine in my heart!
The sergeant then with flashing eye
the lad did then salute.
Said he: My boy you've got the stun
that makes a fine recruit.
Those other fellows with the flag
stuck in their buttonhoie-
Will never find their names upon
their country's honor roll:
You are no idle boaster, and you'll
be proud. my son.
To know the words you spoke to me
were those Of Washington"
CHORUS
I'll answer to my country'E call. &c.
