The pilots, they are ready, but let the leader shout
     G                  D                 A                D

We fly those bloody 102's a million miles an hour

We fly 'em in the rain and fog and in the bloody shower
D

We fly those bloody 102's at ninety thousand feet
G              D                E                  A
Fly 'em in the rain and fog and through the bloody sleet
    D
And when we're flying bloody high we're feeling awfully low

Every night in the O-Club, you'll hear how well they sing

In words the fight a helluva war, they want some combat too
G               D                 A                     D

Bu when we have another war and they send us over seas
