Aces High

There goes the siren that warns of the air raid
Then comes the sound
Of the guns sending flak
Out for the scramble, we've got to get airborne
Got to get up for the coming attack

Jump in the cockpit and start up the engines
Remove all the wheelblocks, there's no time to waste
Gathering speed as we head down the runway
Gotta get airborne before its too late

Running, scrambling, flying
Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
Running, scrambling, flying
Doing it again
Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die
Why don't you
Run, live to fly, fly to live
Aces high

Move in to fire at the mainstream of bombers
Let off a sharp burst and then turn away
Roll over, spin round and come in behind them
Move to their blindsides and firing again

Bandits at 8 o'clock move in behind us
Ten me - 109's out of the sun
Ascending and turning our spitfires
To face them
Heading straight for them I press down my guns

Rolling, turning, diving
Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
Rolling, turning, diving
Doing it again
Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die
Why don't you
Run, live to fly, fly to live
Aces high
