Oh say can you see

By the dawns early light

How proudly did we Heil

At the news hour’s fresh beaming

Whose broad stripes and bright stars

Through the perilous fight

O’er the oil fields they sought

Black gold plunder was gleaming

And the rockets red glare

The bombs bursting in air

Grave proof in the night

That our flag flew in terror

Oh say does that blood-spangled

Banner yet wave

O’er lands once roamed free

Our home built by slaves
