Lakota Flag Song - Veterans Song

Lakota Flag Song:
 
A-hay-hay-hay-hay...hay-ha
Way-ha, way-ha...way yoi
 
The U.S. President's banner shall stand until the end of time
Beneath it the nations shall stand together
They will thrive and grow.

Veterans Song:
 
They spearhead an attack.
They make the assault with the great President's Standard of the U.S.A.
And the Lakota sons there are courageous.
They make the assault with the great President's Standard of the U.S.A.
(With) this, they spearhead their attack.
