"First man to die / For the flag we now hold high (Crispus Attucks) / Was a black man / The ground were we stand / With the flag held in our hand / Was first the redman's / Guide of a ship / On the first Columbus trip (Pedro Alonzo Nino) / Was a brown man / The railroads for trains / Came on tracking that was laid / By the yellow man / We pledge allegiance / All our lives / To the magic colors Red, blue and white / But we all must be given / The liberty that we defend / For with justice not for all men / History will repeat again / It's time we learned / This World Was Made For All Men (...)"
