"The Star-Spangled Banner" is the national anthem of the United States. The lyrics come from "Defence of Fort McHenry", a poem written in 1814 by the 35-year-old lawyer and amateur poet, Francis Scott Key, after witnessing the bombardment of Fort McHenry by the British Royal Navy ships in Chesapeake Bay during the Battle of Fort McHenry in the War of 1812.
Fifth Harmony sang the national anthem at Phoenix International Raceway before the ServiceMaster 200 NASCAR Nationwide Series Race on November 9, 2013

Dinah
Oh, say can you see
Fifth Harmony
By the dawn's early light
Lauren
What so proudly we hailed at the
Fifth Harmony
Twilight's last gleaming
Normani
Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight
Ally
O'er the ramparts we watched were so
Fifth Harmony
Gallantly streaming
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air
Camila
Gave proof through the night that our flag
Lauren, Camila, Dinah & Ally
Was still there.
Lauren, Dinah & Normani
Oh
Fifth Harmony
Say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
Ally
O'er the land of the free
Dinah
Free
Normani
Free
And the home of the
Fifth Harmony
Brave
