Bomber Command
BOMBER COMMAND
It won’t happen to me
he said,
we’re Bomber Command.
It won’t happen to me
he said.
We must blow the enemy out of the sky
he said.
we’re Bomber Command
The pride and belligerence of the Reich
it’s Hitler’s war on Europe
and it’s my sixteenth sortie out tonight,
he said
we’re Bomber Command
Somewhere in the Rhineland
his body lies
He gave his life for his country
but he gave mine too
in Bomber Command.
