Don't put it down Best one around

[havocmom]

With July Fourth coming up I offer to the youngsters at DU, patriots all, a song from a different time. All you old hippies, sing along! Sing it loud. Sing it proud. We no longer let anyone call us unAmerican for being liberal.

Don't Put it Down

(Lyrics Ragni and Rado; Music Galt MacDermot, from the musical Hair)

Om mane padme om
On mane padme om
Folding the flag means taking care of the nation.
Folding the flag is putting it to bed for the night.
I fell through a hole in the flag
I'm falling through a hole in the flag
Help!

Don't put it down
Best one around
Crazy for the red blue and white
Crazy for the red blue and white

You look at me
What do you see
Crazy for the white red and blue
Crazy for the white red and blue

Cause I look different
You think I'm subversive
Crazy for the blue white and red
Crazy for the blue white and red

My heart beats true
For the red white and blue
Crazy for the blue white and red
Crazy for the blue white and red
And yellow fringe
Crazy for the blue white red and yellow
