Aces High

[00:40.15] There goes the siren that warns of the air raid

[00:43.83] Then comes the sound of the guns sending flak

[00:47.50] Out for the scramble we've got to get airborne

[00:51.18] Got to get up for the coming attack.

[00:54.85] Jump in the cockpit and start up the engines

[00:58.24] Remove all the wheel blocks

[00:59.94] There's no time to waste

[01:02.20] Gathering speed as we head down the runway

[01:05.88] Got to get airborne before it's too late

[01:09.27] Running, scrambling, flying

[01:12.94] Rolling, turning, diving,

[01:15.77] Going in again

[01:16.61] Running, scrambling, flying

[01:20.29] Rolling, turning, diving,

[01:23.68] Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die

[01:36.68] Won't you run, live to fly, fly to live, aces high

[01:53.07] --

[02:49.61] Move in to fire at the mainstream of bombers

[02:53.00] Let off a sharp burst and then turn away

[02:56.68] Roll over, spin round to come in behind them

[03:00.07] Move to their blindsides and firing again

[03:03.46] Bandits at 8 o'clock move in behind us

[03:07.09] Ten ME-109s out of the sun

[03:10.49] Ascending and turning our Spitfires to face them

[03:14.16] Heading straight for them I press down my guns.

[03:17.55] Rolling, turning, diving

[03:20.94] Rolling, turning, diving,

[03:23.77] Going in again

[03:24.62] Rolling, turning, diving

[03:28.01] Rolling, turning, diving

[03:31.68] Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die

[03:43.84] Won't you run, live to fly, fly to live, aces high.
