Aces HighThere goes the siren that warns of the air raidThen 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 it�s too late Running, scrambling, flying Rolling, turning, diving, going in again Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die Won�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 to come in behind them Move to their blindsides and firing again Bandits at 8 0�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 Rolling, turning, diving Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die Won�t you run, live to fly , fly to live, Aces high |
