1. The Washington Monument

2. (Verse 1)
Standing proud and tall in our nation’s mall,
It’s a marble monument.
It’s for honoring a great man, you see.
It’s for our first president.
(Refrain)
First in war. First in peace.
First in the hearts of his countrymen.
Oh, they built it tall so all could see
And remember Washington.

3. (Verse 2)
Fifty U.S. flags circle ‘round the base
As it climbs straight to the sun.
It’s a symbol of our democracy
And it honors Washington.
(Refrain)
First in war. First in peace.
First in the hearts of his countrymen.
Oh, they built it tall so all could see
And remember Washington.

4. (Coda)
First in war. First in peace.
First in the hearts of his countrymen.
It’s a monument for all to see
And it honors Washington.
George Washington.
