Version 1 of the lyrics

1  B. R. Hornsby/John Hornsby1
2      2
  It's coming any day said the captain  It's coming any day said the captain
  It's coming any day now cried the priest  It's coming any day now cried the priest
  The people in high places may defend you  The people in high places may defend you
  But son you better hope they keep the peace  But son you better hope they keep the peace
      
  Can't you hear them calling  Can't you hear them calling
  Can't you see them shine  Can't you see them shine
  The city halls are falling  The city halls are falling
  The defenders drink their wine  The defenders drink their wine
  And when the party's over  And when the party's over
  Their stomachs start to sag  Their stomachs start to sag
1  Defenders, defenders of the flag   Defenders, Defenders of the flag 1
      
  The congregation's waiting at the altar  The congregation's waiting at the altar
  They can't find the preacher anywhere  They can't find the preacher anywhere
  They found him with the new girl from the choir  They found him with the new girl from the choir
  Where they store the boxes of the book of prayer  Where they store the boxes of the book of prayer
      
  If these guys are the good ones  If these guys are the good ones
  I don't want to know the bad  I don't want to know the bad
  You wonder how it happened  You wonder how it happened
  They just picked it up from dad  They just picked it up from dad
  While faded old glory is hanging like a rag  While faded old glory is hanging like a rag
  Defenders, defenders of the flag  Defenders, defenders of the flag
      
  The flag is flying high over the courthouse  The flag is flying high over the courthouse
  The wheels of justice never stood a chance  The wheels of justice never stood a chance
2  The judge is down at charlie's on his lunch hour   The judge is down at Charlie's on his lunch hour 2
3  Checking out the picture show from france   Checking out the picture show from France 3
      
  Carrying a fifth of whiskey  Carrying a fifth of whiskey
  In a dirty paper bag  In a dirty paper bag
  Threw the ball to home  Threw the ball to home
  But they always missed the tag  But they always missed the tag
  Faded old glory hanging like a rag  Faded old glory hanging like a rag
  Defenders, defenders of the flag  Defenders, defenders of the flag
