Hunting in MiG alley, miles from home Well into Manchuria, my fuel’s running low Behind enemy lines, turn back to the sea Look up above, four MiGs are what I see CLOSE IT UP I scream, don’t lose your nerves They’re well out of range, but firing anyway it works My wingman he breaks, without warning me This I don’t need now, nose down at four Gs
With man machine as one My saber and the sky It’s do or be dead up here NO GUTS, NO GLORY
I pull in behind them, keep them in between All my guns blazing, I hit number two Roll it out and climb I say, you’ll be alright Two MiGs on my six, they won’t be there for long GOBBLING FUEL like mad, I keep the MiGs outside Roll around over top, reverse “S” and I’m behind them They break for the Yalu, but I’ve no fuel to chase They will just be, the two that got away
Climbing to 9,000 feet, it’s going to be close To my left another MiG, but he doesn’t turn to engage I look at my fuel, then at the MiG in front of me What the hell why not, I’m Ace “Boots” Blesse ANOTHER MIG gone, but I’m not safe quite yet My fuel’s still low, and I’m miles from Pyongyang Head winds make it harder, as I head for Pen Yang Do Encouragement over the radio, I make it over water and eject Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa. |
