I'm seeing a LOT of tweets saying Trump doesn't know the words to the national anthem

44. Here are my memorized lyrics to the first verse. I got only one word wrong.

I have always used, "our" instead of "the" in front of twilight.

I only know the first verse. I've never been in sports. I don't watch sports. I have only been two 2 professional sports events in my entire life, one was in 1978 and another was in the 1990s.

I hear it at occasional Democratic events, but don't pay attention to the words. I watched Beyonce lip sync it an Obama's second inauguration. I believe that is the last time that I actually "watched" it sung.

I learned it in school over 50 years ago.

If I know these lyrics this well, I'm sure that more than 1/100 on this site know the lyrics better than me.

O say can you see
By the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed
At our twilight's last gleaning
Whose broad stripes and bright stars
Through the perilous strife
O'r the ramparts we watched
Were so gallantly streaming
And the rockets red glare
The bombs bursting in air
Gave proof through the night
That are flag was still there
O say does that star spangle banner yet wave
O'r the land of the free
And the home of the brave
