    Can somebody help me with the text?

    Single dream one queen one flag
    Message understood receiving no cry
    Silly fools
    Sorry Mrs Jones ... baby just died
    Caught between the land .....

    Reaching for the top where I'm gonna fly the flag ...

    Thanks :-)

    [hook]
    Single dream, one queen
    One flag, under which I was born
    Message understood, received with pride
    Following orders, crowds that falter, gunning them down
    Staking claims for valor under flags

    [chorus]
    Reaching for the top where I'm gonna find a flag
    Cause I'm using semaphore
    Reaching for the top where I'm gonna find a flag
    Cause I'm using semaphore

    Silly fools on horses, charging all in a line
    Stupid men or boys, they all get killed
    Sorry Mrs. Jones, you see, your baby just died
    Caught between the lands, that he defends

    [chorus]

    [hook]

    [chorus] 2x's

    Thanks JP! :-)

    Could it be:

    The Dukes: Reaching for the top
    Playground: Nation under one flag?

    Thanks, I will research those! Do you mean The Dudes? (because that isn't it). I was thinking it might be Georgia II - The Flag but I couldn't find a sample. Also the song is 3:17, not 3:48 and the year is off.

    Wow, how did you find it? I can't find a sample anywhere! Did you ask someone on Discogs?

    Hi, JP. Ik found it on a Dutch site called muziekweb. Just using the word "flag" and before 1988 (voor 1988) :-)
