71% of Americans think they know all the lyrics to our national anthem. Meaning just the first verse that we sing, not the other three verses. So do YOU know all the lyrics?
Only 23% said they probably don't, or definitely don't. And another 6% weren't sure . . . so, they probably don't either.
And if you think the lyrics include the word "over" or the word "or" spelled O-R, then you do NOT actually know the right lyrics. It's "O'ER the land of the free," spelled O-E-R with an apostrophe.
(Another lyric people screw up a lot is, "Whose broad stripes and bright stars." It's "broad," not "brought." If you want to test yourself, try filling out the lyrics on this quiz.)
