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 wheel blocks, there's no time to waste
Gathering speed as we head down the runway
Got to get airborne before it's too late
Running
Scrambling
Flying
Rolling
Turning
Diving
Going in again
Running
Scrambling
Flying
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
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 blind sides 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
Running
Scrambling
Flying
Rolling
Turning
Diving
Going in again
Running
Scrambling
Flying
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
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 wheel blocks, there's no time to waste
Gathering speed as we head down the runway
Got to get airborne before it's too late
