Until my sister saw the Star Spangled Banner written down on one of those paper flags that were passed out after 9/11 she thought the line went.. Oh say can you see by the donserly light... She was so suprised that it was actually Dawn's Early light. She just thought that the donserly light was a type of light that they used back when the song was written. (she was 18 at the time :oP )
