Bouncy interpretation of the classic Edwin Starr song by this US band. Issued in the UK on Sue in 1966.

Plagarism? This song sounds just like Germany's rtraditional national anthem, Deutschland Uber Alles.

@GrawrTM Serving the flag is another way of saying you are in the military. It sounds like it was given to a young man about to go to Nam, by his girl.

I love this song and always have.
It really does make me happy.
It makes me think of my son.

What a great song by this quartet with the soulful sound from Detroit. It's such a romantic ballad expressing gratitude & devotion for the joy, love and for sticking with him/her through thick & thin. It would climb to the # 12 spot on the billboard charts in 1966. I like to put it in the same category as The Vogues "Turn Around, Look At Me" and The Association's "Never My Love". All love ballads during this great time in the 60s decade. If you like this song check out my channel for a ton more!
