Final Check Last Thoughts
The Men are scared Sir
But a word from you would allay
there fears
They wonder if she can make the trip ?
Will she bring us all home safely ?
Can she withstand this perilous
mission into whence we journey ?
We believe and place our faith in you we stand 100% behind you to a Man
So unto Gods great sky and hands this
tarmac runway and Aeroplane thrust
Fate is causing butterfly turbulence
in hollow stomachs humming to the
backfire of Rolls Royce engines
Twitching , Scratching , Jumping
Blood and Heart Thumping
Right Lads
Any last thoughts
Final Checks complete
Let's get this over and done with
And make it home as quick as possible and in 1 piece
Otherwise see you on the other side
It's been 1 hell if a ride
It's been a privilege and honor Boys
