Catherine

歌詞

Sergeant Foster, tell me now straight Four thousand pounds of fire and we're in overweight You say you don't believe we'll ever get her off the ground Don't worry, sergeant she ain't never let me down No she ain't never let me down Up here with the birds and the angels and the bombs Eighty-nine missions and I ain't twenty-one Thinking of my mother and the girl I left behind Come on silver darling, we were born to fly Yeah we were born to fly And my Catherine, carry me on your wings To Lake Michigan and childhood dreams Where the Red Arrow Highway cuts right through our town Nothing but blue skies and fire on the ground Nothing but blue skies and fire on the ground Remember them German boys from Chicago town Marching down main street and nobody made a sound I wasn't but a child then, and I ain't much older now Looking back through the smoke and flames, they never saw it coming down No they never saw it coming down And my Catherine, carry me on your wings To Lake Michigan and childhood dreams Where the Red Arrow Highway cuts right through our town Nothing but blue skies and fire on the ground Nothing but blue skies and fire on the ground Traveled across the ocean, been all around this land Pontedera, Italy ... got drunk in Paris, France Crossed that old Rhine River, can't be much longer now Have you heard the news today? We're all heroes now! Yeah we're all heroes now And my Catherine, carry me on your wings To Lake Michigan and childhood dreams Where the Red Arrow Highway cuts right through our town Nothing but blue skies and fire on the ground Nothing but blue skies and fire on the ground
