I know the first and last verses (I think, without looking, there are four). (USA) ...and the last words are not "play ball" or "gentlemen start your engines"

I know every word of the Nigerian National Anthem.
Arise, O compatriots
Nigerians call obey
To serve our father land
With love and strenght and faith
The labor of our heroes past
Shall never be in vain
To serve with heart and might
One nation bound in freedom
Peace and Unity.
There's one more verse, but I guess this'll do.

Yes. Of course I do!
Oh say can you see
By the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed
At the twilight's last gleeming
Whose broad stripes and bright stars
Through the perilous night
O'er the ramparts we watched
Were so gallantly streaming
And the rockets' red glare
The bombs bursting in air
Gave proof through the night
That our flag was still there
Oh say does that star spangled
Banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free
And the home of the brave!

Yes, I am Canadian and know both O Canada (the national anthem)which is sung each day at school and God Save the Queen (the Royal anthem) which I used to sing as a child at school.
O Canada became the official Canadian national anthem on July 1st, 1980.
O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!
From far and wide,
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
The Royal anthem is sung at state occasions where the Royal family may be present or Governor General and at some meetings of organizations such as the Royal Canadian Legion although it has 'no legal status'. Usually only the first verse is ever sung.
God save our gracious Queen
Long live our noble Queen,
God save the Queen:
Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us:
God save the Queen.
O Lord, our God, arise,
Scatter thine enemies,
And make them fall:
Confound their politics,
Frustrate their knavish tricks,
On thee our hopes we fix:
God save us all.
Thy choicest gifts in store,
On her be pleased to pour;
Long may she reign:
May she defend our laws,
And ever give us cause
To sing with heart and voice
God save the Queen.

Certainly.
Australians all, let us rejoice
For we are young and free,
With golden soil and wealth for toil,
Our home is girt by sea.
Our land abounds in nature's gifts
Of beauty, rich and rare,
In history's page let every stage
Advance Australia Fair.
(There's more, but that'll do)
