., .DEDICATION Every fighting unit since the earliest, days of armed intercourse ... among humans has claimed certain songs, customs, and contests as their own. Fighter pilots are especially prone to these forms of^expression. No doubt the roots of all this go back as far as Von Richthofen, Frank Luke, and Eddie Rickenbacker. So the Broncos dedicate this book to all the fighter pilots who have gone before*us. There's a fireball down there on the hillside, And I think.maybe we've lost a friend 8 But we'll keep on flying, and we'll keep on dying, For duty and honor never end. There's an upended glass on the table, Down in front of a lone empty chair Yesterday we were with.him, today God be with him, Forever,, he is in your care. They were four when they took off this morning, And their duty was there in the sky Only three.ships returning,, Blue Four ain't returning, To Blue Faur then hold your glasses high. There's a fireball down there on the hillside, And I think maybe we've lost a; friend And we'll keep on flying, and we'll keep on dying, For duty and honor never end. FIGHTER PILOT'S TOAST Here's to me in my sober mood When I ramble,sit and think Here's to me in my drunken mood When I gamble, sin and drink But "when my flying days are over, And from this world I pass I hope they bury me upside down So the world can kiss my ass.

BRONCO SONGS THESE ARE OUR SQUADRON FAVORITES WHICH TELL THE STORT OF OUR FLYING AND FIGHTING SPIRIT. DEAR MOM Dear Mom, your son is dead, he bought the farm today, he crashed his OV-10 on Kim II Sung's highway. He made a rocket pass, and then, he busted his ass. MMM, MMM, MMM. He went across the fence to see what he could see, and there it was, as plain as it could be. There was a truck on the road, with a big heavy load. MMM, MMM, MMM. He got right on the horn, and gave the DASC a call, "Send me air, I've got a truck that's stalled." The DASC said, "That's all.right, I'll send you Juvat Flight." FOR I AM THE POWER! The Phantoms checked right in, Gunfighters two by two, low on gas and tanker overdue. They asked the FAC to mark, just where the truck was parked. MMM, MMM, MMM. The Bronc, he rolled right in, with his smoke to mark, , exactly where that truck was parked.- And the rest is in doubt, cause he never pulled out.. MMM, MMM, MMM. (This .time with reverence) Dear Mom, your son is dead, he bought the farm today, he crashed his OV-lOon Kim II Sung's highway. He made a rocket pass, and then he busted his ass. HIM, HIM, FUCK HIM!1 How did he go? STRAIGHT IN! What was he doing? THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-ONEi Hell of a deal*. WHOOEE.! Cocksucker, motherfucker, eat a bag of shit, Cunt hair, douche bag, bite your Mother's tit. We're the best'Fighter Squadron, all the others suck. Bronco Fac, Bronco Fac, Rah, Rah, Fuck!
ANOTHER BRONCO SONG (Tune of: Mama Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys- W. Jennings) Broncos ain't easy to love, and they're hard to control. And they'd like to frag MPC for the bullshit they're sold Boom mikes and earplugs and forty pound map bags, And prop beat that drives them insame. If you don't understand them, and most Colonels don't, You'll think that they're all a big pain. (CHORUS) Broncos like mix hags and oscar and small titted yo.bos, Little kundingees and nurses and anything in sight. Them that don't know 'em won't like 'em, And them that do sometimes don't know how to take 'em. They ain't wrong they're just different, And their pride won't let 'em, Forget that they once strapped on jets. (CHORUS) CHORUS Mama don't let your babies grow up to be Broncos. Don't let 'em shoot rockets and roll in on trucks, Let 'em drive Phantoms, and Eagles, and Slufs. Mama don't let your babies grow up to be Broncos. They'll never stay sober, they're always hung over, Even on Saturday Morn. RED NECK FACER (Tune of: Red Neck Mother) Well, he arrived at Osan Air Base, His yobo's name was Mary Lou Thelma Kim. He's not responsible for what he's doing, Cause his commander made him what he is. (CHORUS) F is for the fighter I used to fly. - A is for the acceleration 1 miss so much. C is for the CAS missions with them there Juvats. E is for earplugs. R is for poopy suit RED NECK! (CHORUS) 6
CHORUS And it's up against the wall red neck facer, Facer who has loved the plane so well. It's, ten foot two and sittin' in a wonder arch. Just flaming out and rusting all to hell. BRONCO FROM BUL GO Kl - (Tune of: Okkie From Muskogee) We don't make a party out of Faccin'. We still give our business to Miss Chu. We don't get no VD down at the Hilltop. Like, the Juvats down at Kunsan Air Base do. (CHORUS) We don't get our kicks out of extending. We just grow a beak beyond compare. And if I had to stay here one day longer. Take an OV-10 and stick it in your ear. (CHORUS) In Bui Go Ki Osan Air Base ROK! CHORUS I'm proud to be a BRONCO from BulGo Ki. A place where even FAC's can have a ball. " We still eat our mix bags down in the alley. Put a bag-on her head and imagine that she's tall! I'M A NAIL I'm a nail, I fly the trail. I drop bombs on Nguyens' tail Has anybody seen my smoke? C3U, Rockeye too, even 82's will do. Can anybody hit my smoke? Now if you run into a ZPU, you're flying too low. Triple A, everyday, that the only way to go. Thunderstorms all around, I can't even see the ground. But Lyndon B, won't let me' go. I'm at the Catcher Mitt, I took a hit. " My shit is weak. Fuckin' A, it ain't my day. -J"" Nguyen blew my shit away.
I'M A NAIL (CONT') I'm in the chute, comin down, Nguyen waitin' on the ground. Beeper, Beeper come up voice, You mother-fucker. Beeper, Beeper come up voice. KOREAN TOWN OF SONG-TAN UP (Tune of: El Paso) Out in the West Korean town of Song-Tan Up, I fell in love with a kimchi-breath girl. :' Night time would find me in Aragon Alley, Seeing if Miss Lee would give me a whirl. One night a wild young Bronco came' in, Wild as the west kimchi wi.........nd. Dashing and daring, an Oscar was sharing, With wicked Miss Lee, the girl I adore. So in anger, I challenged the right to the love of this. virgin, Down went his hands, and so did the whore. My challenge was answered in less, than a heartbeat. The Bronco was done and was ready for more.
OLD STANDARDS BASIC FIGHTER PILOT SONGS FROM TEARS GONE BT HAHT OF THE AIRCRAFT HAVE CHANGED BUT THE SPIRIT REMAINS THE SAME* AIR FORCE SONG Off we go, into the wild blue yonder - Climbing high, into the sun'. Here they come zooming to meet our thunder, At 'em boys, give her the gun. Down we dive, spouting our flame from under, Off with one hell of a roar. We live in fame,, or go down in flame, Nothing can stop the U.S. Air Force. Here's a toast to the host of those who boast The vastness of the sky. To a friend we send a message of - His brother men who fly. We drink to those who gave their all of old As down we roar to score the rainbow's pot of gold. Here's a toast -to the host of those who boast The U.S. Air Force. Minds of men fashioned a crate of thunder, - Set it high into the blue. Hands of men blasted the world asunder, How they lived God only knew! Souls of men dreaming of skies to conquer Gave us wings.,, ever to scar! With fighters before and bombers galore, Nothing'11 stop the U.S. Air Force. Off we go into the wild sky yonder, Keep the wings level and true. If you'd live to be a grey-haired wonder, Keep your nose out of the blue; Flying men, guarding the nation's border, We'11 be there, followed by more! In echelon we carry on, Nothing'11 stop the U.S. Air Force I
SAVE A FIGHTER PILOT'S ASS (CHORUS) Oh, Halleluia., Oh, Halleliua, Throw a nickel on the grass Save a fighter pilot's ass. Oh, Halleluia, Oh, Halleliua, Throw a nickel on the grass And you'll be saved. It was midnight in Korea All the pilots were in bed. When up stepped Colonel ________, And this is what he said: Sabres, gentle sabres, sabres one and all Pilots, gentle pilots, and the pilots shouted BALLS! When up stepped a young Lieutenant, With a voice as harsh as brass. You can take those God Damm Sabre. Jets and shove them up your ass. Cruising down the Yalu, doing sixtwenty per There came a call from the Major, Oh won't you save me , sir? Got three big flak holes in my wings, my tanks ain't got no gas. Mayday, mayday, mayday, got six MIGS on my ass. I shot my traffic pattern, to me it looked all right The airspeed read one-thirty, My God I racked it tight. The airframe gave a shudder, the engine gave a wheeze, Mayday, mayday, mayday, spin instructions,. please. Fouled up my crosswind landing, the left wing hit the ground. There came a call from the tower, pull up and go around. I racked that Sabre in the air a dozen feet or more The engine quit, I almost shit, the gear came through the floor. Split S onto my bomb run, I got too God damn low, I pressed the bloody button, let both my babies go. I sucked the stick back in my gut., I hit a high speed stall Now I won't see my mother when the work's all done this fall. They sent me up to Pyongyang, the brief said "Skoshe ack ack" But by the time I got there, my wing was. holed by flak My aircraft went into a spin, it would no longer fly Mayday, mayday, mayday, I am too young to die.
SAVE A FIGHTER PILOT'S ASS (cont) I bailed out from the Sabre, my landing was top line With my E and E equipment, I made for our front line, When I opened up ration, time to see what was in it, My God damn quartermaster had filled the thing with shit. Now in this Commie prison camp, I am obliged to sit For one cannot go very far, on a ration" tin of shit.. If I am ever free again, I will no longer fly But I'll have quartermaster bollix, for breakfast till I die. Oh, while rolling down the runway, and headed for the ditch I looked down at my prop, My God, it's in high pitch I pulled back on the stick, and rose into the air Glory, Glory Halleluia, How did. I get there. The boys from the other group, they think they are so hot. They brag about the Bluetails that they've so often shot.. One thing they don't remember, when they holler and hoot, . Is to look into their mirror, just before they shoot. I hear we're leaving Europe, they say we're going home They tell us no more wandering, never more we'll roam. But the Colonels up at Langley, are planning on the sly, Just where they're gonna send us, on our next TDY. I started on my takeoff, I though the flaps were down. But when I' pulled the gear up, the dive brake scraped the ground. The General he smiled at me, he thought it was great fun But then I met the FEB, Chitose here I come. We flew our Sabres through the war, we flew them far and fast But when the war was over, we knew it wouldn't last. They sent our old instructors, to teach us all their tricks, > So now we're flying training, behind those dirty pricks. Letting down from forty-four busting through mach, That Sabre Jet was moving now, falling like a rock. My boomwas aimed right at the field, there was an awful sound, Since we're flying training new, I'm sitting on the ground. I started up into a loop, I thought that I was clear, I pulled up under Colonel Blood, I thought the end was near. I went before the FSB, and they gave me the works, Glory, glory, halleluia, what a bunch of jerks. II
SAVE A FIGHTER PILOT'S ASS (cont) Strafin' on the panel, I made my pass too low, There came a cal± from Melrose, "One more and heme you'll go." I pulled thai: Sabre in the blue, she hit a high speed stall, Now I won't see my mother when the work's ail done this fall. Now I'm in the gutter, with pretzels in my beer, With prerzels in my whiskers, I knew the end was near. Then came this glorious Air Force, to save me from the worst, Everybody bust a butt and sing the second verse.

WINGMAN'S LAMENT (Tune - Sweet Betsy From Pike) We turned the Red and lead said, "Push it up." I used my burner and couldn't keep up. I was dragging behind; it sure ain't no fun. I said,"Leader, leader, oh please give me one." I'm a lousy Thud wingmar^ and a long way from home. -Flying above us were several F-4s, They're 'bout as useful as tits on a boar. They brief in the air and pull other pranks Like bombarding Fives with their empty drop tanks I'm a lousy.....
WINGMAN'S LAMENT (cont) We hit Cho Mci and then turned on our- run. The gunners below uncovered their guns. I tell you the weather up there can change fast From clear and fifteen to black overcast - I'm a lousy..... Lead passed the target before he rolled in With 300 knots: a capital sin. And try though I did, and I tried as I. pleased, 1 had 400 knots and 20 degrees. I'm a lousy..... 1 rolled in and lit a fresh cigarette. A few puffs of flak were nothing to sweat, A damned golden BB met up: with my plane Hey coach, 1 think I will drop out of the game. I 'm a lousy.. . » . ■ ■ j ;-,■ P-l and P-2 fail down through the Red" I begin to fear my Thunderchief's dead. The slab and the stick, they soon separated. By the finger of fate, I have been mated. ■ ... I?m a lousy..... The living at Hilton ain't very good. - I find the quarters as bad as the food. The waiters, they give us a-whole lot of lip. But we don't have to pay, we don't have to tip,. I' m a lousy..... So listen, my friends, if you're flying today, Keep it high, keep it fast, is what I say. Keep up with your leader, but still, just the same, You bet your own ass, is the name of the game. I'm a lousy.....
IN FLIGHT REFUELING (Tune - Strawberry Roan) 0 come fighter pilots, both young and old And I'll tell you a -story, that'11 make you turn cold A story of tankers, and a flight out to sea And I hate to tell you what they did to me. Oh we took off for Brown, oh so early one morn The weather was balmy, but not really warm We soon left the coastline, and .headed to sea And^ for the last time .land I did see. Oh we flew on for hours, it seemed like more We flew and we flew, till my butt it got sore vje And we finally got to that point far from land Where there were supposed to be tankers at hand. But yes, you guessed it, no one was there Nothing around, but ocean and air We called and we called, but it was in vain There was nobody out there to refuel my plane. Oh we circled and circled, and hollered for gas, The pain was beginning to leave my ass, 'Twas beginning to pucker, and turn a dull hue When finally a tanker came into view. Well bygones were bygones, and we didn't bitch We latched onto that son of a bitch Who ho, called the scanner, "It's under your wing, If you don't hook up, you likely will ding." Well I stabbed and I stabbed, and I stabbed some more, But I couldn't hit that dirty old whore,' 1 looked at my gas guage, and it was down low, I backed off again and tried it real slow. So I tried it real .slow boys, but that didn't work, I tried again fast", what a hell of a jerk, The funnel it hit me, one hell of a blow, As I looked at the cold water down there below. I looked at that water, so cold and so chilled, And I thought to myself, I'll soon'be killed So I'd better hook up, and take on some fuel Cause that water below looks uncomfortably cool. So I finally did it, I hit that damn hose I hit that old funnel, right square on the nose, The engineer said, "Sir, you're taking on fuel.", But the bastard was lying, the durty-cTd fool.
IN FLIGHT REFUELING (cont) I called that damn scanner, said, "Turn on the gas, I can't wait much longer, or I'll bust my ass." He looked up from his paper, and said with a grin, "You know there are days, sir, when you just can't win." That's the end of my story, I'm sorry to say, That old F-100 lies out in the bay, But I'll have my vengence, you can bet your life, Cause there's one tanker pilot, that Urn- going to knife. BLESS 'EM ALL Bless 'em all, bless 'em all The long and the short and the tall, Bless old man Lockheed for building this jet I know a man who is cursing him yet; For he tried to go over the wall With his tiptanks, his tailpipes and all, The needles did cross and the wings did come off Cheer up, my lads, bless 'em all. Well, bless 'em all, bless em all, The needle, the airspeed, the ball Bless all the instructors who taught me to fly, Sent me to solo and left me to die; If ever your blowjet should stall, Well, you're due for one hell of a fall, No lillies or violets for dead Fighter Pilots- Cheer up, my lads, bless 'ern all. Through the wall., through the wall Through the bloody invisible wall That trans-sonic journey is nothing but rough, As bad as a ride on the local base bus; So I'm staying away from the wall, Subsonic for me and that's all If you're hot you might make it, But you'll probably break it You're butt and you're neck, not the wall. Bless 'em all, bless 'em all The long and the short and the tall, Bless all the sergeants, and ail of their sons, Bless all the airmen, the fat headed ones For it's them who keep you in the air, Many times you'll be glad that they're there They keep your planes flying, they keep you from dying Bless 'em all, bless' 'em all, bless 'em all.
SON OF SATAN'S ANGELS (by Dick Jonas) CHORUS I'm a son of Satans Angels, And I fly the F-4D. All the way from the Hanoi Railroad Bridge, To the DMZ I'm one of old Hoot Gibson's Boys, And mean as I can be, I'm a son of Satan's Angels and I fly th F-4D. There ain't a triple a gunner up there That's anywhere near my class. Cause I'm as mad as I can be And I'm in for one more pass. He hosed me down one time too much And that one is his last. . And I looked back at where he was Hey man ain't that a gas. (CHORUS) Hello Hanoi Hannah Send your migs to meet their doom. Flying 'em up and blast 'em off Hoot's boys will be there soon. I don't care if you are the gal with a mouthful of silver spoons. Cause I've got sidewinders on board That'll home on an A3 plume. (CHORUS) MY F-1Q5 (by Dick Jonas) I'm a Thud pilot, and I love my plane. It is my body, I am it's brain. My Thunder Chief loves me, and I love her too. But I get the creeps with only one seat. , and one engine too.
MY F-105 (cont) She's faster than lightning it says on her dials. To get a Thud airborne takes only two miles. She's packed with transistors, black boxes, diodes. But stay alert, cause you might get hurt, when she explodes. She totes more bombs than a B-17. My F-105 has a gun and she's mean. But there is one thing, that curdles my blood. It's lonesome up there, alone in the air, in my single seat Thud. I love my Thud and she loves me too/ She soaks up Flak like a magnet can do. ''If I get my hundred and I'm still alive. I'll have no grief, goodbye Thunderchief, my F-105. I'D RATHER BE AN F-4 JOCK (by Dick Jonas) Well I'd rather be an F-4 jock, Than the governor of New York State.
,- Now the Governor's got him a pretty good job, And I suppose he thinks it great. But droppin Nape and Straffin trucks, Are two things he don't know. And I couldn't fill the Governors shoes, Cause I couldn't spend all of that dough. I'd rather be an F-4 jock, Than the owner of old Fort Knox.. And I like the smell of JP-4, Better than a rosewood box. Hydraulic fluid and afterburner fumes, Just some kind of turn me on. Fella I'm- happier flying F-4 D's, Than a Hound Dog nawing a bone. Well I'd rather be a F-4 jock, Than the Air Force Chief of Staff. One good reason I ain't got the rank, Right here you're supposed to laugh. It's a lot more fun just droppin bombs, And hasseling two on two. So I'll just stick to my gunnery range, And flying the Phantom II. 18
I?D RATHER BE AN F-4 JOCK (cont) Well one of these days I'll light my fire, And aim it straight at the sky. And you'll hear me shout as I disappear, That a Phantom is the way to fly, I'll do a high speed pass by the Pearly Gates, About one point six five mach. And I'll tell St Peter if he don't mind", Just make me an F-4 jock. RED RIVER RATS (by Dick Jonas) The Red River Rats meet again Telling tales remembering when. Battles joined in the skies, shed our blood, gave our lives. The Red River Rats meet again. War is never a beautiful thing, But we fought for the right on the wing. Dropping bombs, dodging flak, fighting migs, we'll be back. Shout the Rats battle cry, let.it ring. Sing the Red River Rats battle hymm, Hold your head high, stand tall you are men. Never run from a fight, be prepared day and night, Sing the Red River Rats battle hymm. Look aroung there's a few empty chair?, Honored comrades should be sitting there. Some are dead where they fell, some fight on from a cell, Charge your glass, raise it high, drink to them. Weil, I'll tell you a tale that'll curl your hair. I'll tell you the truth cause I was there, About what happened in Ho Chi Min's backyard. Gyrene sailor and an Air Force type, Slack smoke pouring from a hot tailpipe, Flying and fighting and living a life that's hard. Black smoke, black smcke red sam fire, Pressing your luck right down to the wire, Pickle 'em off and boot that baby for heme.
RED RIVER RATS (cont) But the battle ain't over till you're parked in chocks, So if you fly and fight keep your guns unlocked,' And don't try to fly and fight if you're all alone. What's that telltale wisp I see, That's a contrail prlled by a Fishbed C, The cards are stacked and it looks like time to deal. . Leads got bandits twelve o'clock high, Let's bend it around and scramble for sky, And arm your guns, this ain't no game it's real. We flew the valley and the railroad lines, From Dien Bien Phu to the Cham Pho mines, But the price was high and measured in rich red blood. When tales are told in the halls of fame, When warriors meet you'll hear these names, Skyhawk, Crusader, Intruder, Phantom, Thud. The Red River Rats meet again, Telling tales, remembering when. Battles joined in the skies, shed our blood, gave our lives. The Red River Rats meet again. $ ON TOP OF THE POP" UP (Tune: On Top Of Old Smokey) On top of the pop up And flat on my back I lost my poor wingman In a big hail of flak. Guard channel was silent The sites were all dead, Until we rolled in And looked up ahead. The sky filled with fireballs", The missiles flashed by Sweet Mother of Jesus, We're all going to die. Number two called "I'm hit I'm going to bust." Net one Goddamned Elint Apoor jock can trust. So come ye young pilots And listen to Dad, Forget about jinking And your ass' has been. had. They'll hit you and burn you, Their flak reaches far, It's a long walk to Takhli, And a beer at the bar. 20

41 NAPALM STICKS TO KIDS We shoot the sick, the young, the lame, We do our best to maim. Because all the kills count the same, Napalm sticks to kids. CHORUS: NAPALM STICKS TO KIDS NAPALM STICKS TO KIDS Flying low across the trees, Pilots doing what they please, Dropping frags on refugees, Napalm sticks to kids. Gooks in the open making hay, But I can hear the gunships say, "There'll be no Chieu Hoi today!" Napalm sticks to kids. See, those farmers over there, Watch me get them with a pair. Blood and guts just everywhere! Napalm sticks to kids. I've only seen.it happen twice, Both times it was mighty nice, Shooting peasants' planting rice, Napalm sticks to kids. A squad of Cong lyin* in the grass, But all the fightin's long since past. Crispy Critters in a mass, Napalm sticks to kids. Napalm, son, is lots of fun, Dropped in a bomb or shot from a gun. It gets Gooks' when on the run, Napalm sticks to kids. Drop some napalm on a farm, It won't do them any harm, Just burn off their legs and arms, Napalm sticks to kids. CIA with guns for hire, Montanyards around a fire, Napalm makes the fire go higher, Napalm sticks to kids.
NAPALM STICKS TO KIDS (cont) I've been told itfs not so neat, To watch Gooks burning in the street. But burning flesh smells so sweet! Napalm sticks to kids. Children sucking on a mother's tit, Wounded Gooks down in a pit-, DOW Chemical doesn't give a shit! Napalm sticks to kids. Bombadiers don't care a bit, Just as long as the pieces fit, When.you stuff the bodies in a pit. Napalm sticks to kids. Eighteen kids in a no-fire zone, Books under arms and going home, Last in line goes home alone,. Napalm sticks to kids. Chuck in a Sampan, sitting in the stern, They don't think their boats will burn, Those damn Gooks will never learn! Napalm sticks to kids. Cobras flying in the sun, Killing Gooks is lots of fun. Get one pregnant, it's two for one! Napalm sticks to kids. Shoot civilians where they sit, Take some pictures as you split, All your"life you'll remember it, Napalm sticks to kids. NVA are.all hard core, Fleschettes are never a bore, Throw those Psyops out the door! Napalm sticks to kids. Gather kids as you fly over the town By throwing candy on the ground. Then grease 'em when they gather round, NAPALM STICKS TO KIDS! 24
UP IN THAT VALLEY (Tune - Down in the Valley) Up in that valley, That valley so low Where the SAM missiles flourish, And the 85s glow. The Thai Nguyen steel plant, The.Hanoi rail yard, The bridges at Bac Giang They've played their trump card The Iron Hands mill right, And the strike pilots flail, The MIGs try to bounce us, But they always faj.1. The MIG cap he hellers, "There's bandits at twelve!" "Launch!", screams the Weasel, It's better in hell. The flak is a-bursting Right next to my hide, All I can hear is, "You're lagging behind." We're down on the bomb run The target's 'in sight "Sweet Jesus", I'm thinking "I'd better break right." We're breaking for Thud Ridge, What a beautiful sight, Oh. shit, I just noticed An overheat light. My heart is a-pumping, I know I'm not dead Please, God, get this old Thud Just out past the Red. If I can get past That old muddy slough, The Sandys and Jollys Will pull me on through. I'm past ninety-seven, And now I can boast The rest I can finish Out over the coast. Where the tankers don't matter, Although I must say, .1 often have seen it, Where they've saved the day. Up in that valley That valley of grief I hope all your flights there Will always be brief. Good-bye to that valley, So long to Takhli Don't bust your ass, buddy, I'm going home free.

STRAFE THE TOWN AND KILL THE PEOPLE (-cont) See them group up in the market Waiting for a pound of rice Hungry, skinny, starving people Isn't killing harvest nice. Call the fence and safe the switches Another mission almost done Out of gas and ammunition Isn't killing people fun, YOU CAN TELL A FIGHTER PILOT (Tune - Battle Hymn of the Republic) By the ring around his eyeballs, you can tell a bombadier You can tell a bomber pilot by the spread across his rear You can tell a navigator by his'sextants, charts and such And you can tell a Fighter Pilot, but you cannot tell him much. Chorus: It's a lie, It's a lie You can tell the silljr bastard it's a lie,lie,lie It's a lie, It's a lie You can tell the silly bastard it's a silly fucking lie. First lady forward and the second lady back Third lady's finger up the fourth lady's crack Then you gather all together in the middle of the room Will the lady who just farted kindly leave the fucking room (Chorus) .. . - 9 We fly our fucking fighters down to forty fucking feet Through the fucking corn and through the fucking wheat First you fly the fuckers up and then you fly the fuckers down And you'll be the first to know when you hit the fucking ground (Chorus) Rollin' in on target with your burners all aglow You put your pipper on them and you let your napalm go First you jink out to the left and then jink out to the right And you hit the declc a-runnihg and make It home another night, THE THANH HOA BRIDGE (Tune - The Strawberry Roan) I was hanging round Ops in this sweaty clime, Just cussin' the schedule and my lack of time, When up walks this Colonel and says,"I suppose You're a trained killer by the looks of your clothes." Well I looked him up once and I looked him down twice. j. could tell by his sneer he -weren't thinkin' nice, So I said in a voice that shook with the fear I'm your man if you buy the beer.
THE THANH HOA BRIDGE (cont) The Colonel then said, "I've a place in mind Where you can go, if you're not blind They've flak and MIGs -and SAMs and such, I need a man that's good in the clutch." I get all het up and ask what I'd get, 'Twas a kick in the ass if I didn't hit. I told him I'd go cause they havenht found A target in Hell that I couldn't pound. We jump, in his car and go to the line. He stops by a'Nickle' that's tied up in twine "This" is your bird, now get on your way.n: I could tell at a glance I'd sure earn my pay. I crank the beast up' and taxi on out,. As I leave the chocks I hear the chief shout "The oil pressure's low, the water don't work, And the stab aug's got one hell of a jerk." I give him a grin and waggle my thumb, This one's a counter and I'm not so dumb. Well I take on off a two hundred per, I got two on the wings and a full loaded MER. I struggle on up to ten thousand feet, Send down the tanker or we'll never meet. Well I take on my gas and head out on course, I call for a steer until I am hoarse. But Lion is down and Invert won't say, And Brigham says I'm not going his way. Well I'm off on my'-own" and all for the best, Those bastards don't know the East from the West.- Now I get over Thanh Hoa and I look for the bridge, They said it was South but it's East of the ridge. I roll in on my run, it looks easy as pie, 'Til the flak starts burstin' and coverin' the sky. I cooly compute all the mils I will need, And calmly adjust both angle and speed. I check my drift and with the bridge in my sight, I mash on the button and pull off to the right. Well, I check back at six and I see this big bird, He's closing in fast and he's sure riding herd. As he flashes by there's a Red Star on each side, It must be a Mi;G and there's no place to hide. 23
THE THANH HOA BRIDGE (cont) I head for the deck with all that she's got, When along- comes-this SAM-..my God I've been shot! When driftin' down in my chute all alone, I'm finally convinced that I'm no smokin' stone. I'm wishin' I was back in Kansas right now -With a face full of horseshit, my hand on a plow. But that ain't so and I'm down in the drink A day like today can^sure make a man think! Oh that Thanh Hoa Bridge Oh that Thanh Hoa Bridge They've flak and missiles,.you're some sittin' duck, At downing good pilots, they've had lots of luck. STAND TO YOUR GLASSES A fighter pilot lay dying. The medic left him for dead.v, All around him,women were crying, These are the words that h,e said: "Take the tailpipe out of,my kidney, Take the burner out of my brain Take the generator: out of my stomach, And assemble the- unit again."

So,stand to your glasses steady This world is full of lies, Here's a.toast, to those dead already And here's to the next man to die. For weare the boys who fly high in the sky Bosom buddies while boozing We are the boys that they send out to "die Bosom buddies while boozing At.TAC Headquarters they laugh and they shout Talk about things they know fuck all about " But we are.the boys that they send out to die * Bosom buddies while boozing Bosom buddies while boozing.
ITAZUKE TOWER (Tune - Wabash Gannon Ball) Listen to the rumble, and hear old iMerlin roar I'm flying over Moji, like I never flew before Hear the mighty rush of the slipstream and hear old Merlin roar I'll wait a bit and say a prayer, and hope it gets me home". "Itazuke Tower, This is Air Force-801, I'm turning on the downwind leg, My prop has overrun; My coolant's overheated, the .gage says 1-2-1 You'd better get the crash crew out And get them on the run." .-,...

"Itazuke Tower, this is Air Force 801, I'm-turning on my final, I'm running on one lung, I'm gonna land this Mustang No matter what you say, I'm gonna get ifiy charts squared up Before that Judgment Day." "Now listen Air Force 801, this is Itazuke Tower, We'd like to let you in right now, But we haven't got the power,

"Itazuke Tower, this is Air Force 801, I'm up in Pilot's Heaven and My flying days are done; I'm sorry that I blew up, I couldn't make the grade I guess I should have waited till The landing was okayed."
I WANTED WINGS I wanted wings until I got the goddamn things Now I donf t want them any more. They taught me how to fly, Any they sent me here to die, I've had a belly ful of war You can save those Zeros for the goddamn heros, 'Cause Distinguished Flying Crosses Do not compensate for losses, - - Buster "'.CHORUS I wanted wings until I got the goddamn things Now I don't want them any more. I'll take the dames while the rest go down in flames, Air combat spelled romance, but it made me wet my pants, I'm not a fighter I have learned. You can save those Messerschmidts For the other sons of bitches. 'Cause I'd rather screw a woman than be shot down in a Grumman Buster, I wanted wings. I'm too young to die in a damned old PBY That's for the eager, not me I don't trust my luck to be picked up in a duck After I've crashed into the sea Oh I'd rather be a bellhop than a flyer on a flattop With my hand around a bottle^ not a goddamn throttle Buster, I wanted wings. I don't want to tour over Berlin or the Ruhr Flak always makes me puke my lunch I get no hey-hey when they holler "bombs away" I'd rather be home with the bunch Now there's one thing you can't laugh off, That is when they shoot your ass off. Oh I rather come home Buster, with my balls than with a cluster, Buster, I wanted wings. I don's fly for fun in a P dash five crash one Blazing a path for Patton's tanks My wife don't want insurance and I'm not out for endurance, I'd rather go to Paris and spend francs. In England it was the Blitz, and in France its the Messerschmidts, Oh I feel like such a sucker when my ass starts to pucker, Sucker, I wanted wings.
I' WANTED WINGS (cont) They feed us lousy chow, but we stay alive somehow On dehydrated' eags and milk and stew What will they think of next? They'll be dehydrating sex, And on that day I'll tell the coach I'm through. For I dearly love my humpin', and I'd love to do some pumpin', But I'd rather come with chowder, than to come with lumps of powder, Buster, I wanted wings. Now the day that we bombed Metz, I ran out of cigarettes, I always smoke one for my gut They make them by the ton, but I haven't got a one Oh, what I'd give to have a butt Now the homefront may be pitchin', but I still will do my bitchin' Till I find some real sharp cookie, who can mass produce some nookie, Buster, I wanted wings. I WANTED WINGS (Thud version) I've been alive twenty years, plus four or five, And I've tried many pursuit I went to pilot school; learned the ropes and learned the rules And got my wings and my blue suit. Then I went to get upgraded, and like a fool I made it Then they made me number four, and they sent me off to war Buster, I wanted wings. The Republic Thunderchief is just twenty tons of grief The dirty sons-of-bitches filled it with three hundred switches Buster, I wanted wings. To keep my body alive, they taught me how to survive At a place nestled in the hills they fed me porcupine, And other goodies fine; pemmican to cure all my ills And^in three weeks I had made it, they said I'd graduated Well buddy, if that's livin', I think that I'll just give in Buster, I wanted wings. You can have your he-man training in the snow, and when it's raining, I'd rather be a weenie, with my tootie and martini Buster, I wanted wings. I don't want to stay, but I cannot get away In Hanoi they all love parades Each day we take a walk, through Hanoi's Central Park Not dressed in. style, I'm afraid Oh those little yellow mamas dressed us all in black-pajamas ' Spectators, they just sit there, sometimes throw rocks, sometimes spit there Buster, I wanted wings. *5 9
I WANTED WINGS (cont) You can have your 105, Ifd iritich rather say alive The lousy afterburner just gets you north that much sooner, Buster, I wanted wings. These lines are just in jest; Thud drivers are the best At flyin' 'n' chasin' women too* The goods that they deliver are sure to make Ho shiver, And wish to hell that this was through And for ^ome it is all over, they lie down ?neath the clover; They did not go down in flames, but we -will not forget their names, Buster, they wanted wings. And they've truly got their wings And they'll wear them evermore. For there are no regulations for those heaven-bound formations If"they don't like it, well, they can split-s down to Hell Buster, they wanted wings. And they've truly got their wings, And they'll wear them evermore.

KOREAN SOUS MOST OF THIS SECTION" CAME ABOUT 13URING THE KOREAN WAR, HOWEVER, MUCH OF IT STILL APPLIES TO THOSE OF US IN KOREA NOW. ON TOP OF OLD PYONGYANG (Tune - On Top of Old Smokey) On top of old Pyongyang, all covered with flak I lost my poor wingman, He'll never come back For flying is pleasure, and dying is grief And a quick triggered Commie, is worse than a thief. For a thief will just rob you, and take all you save But the quick triggered Commie, will send you to the grave And the grave will destroy you, and turn you to dust Not one MIG in a thousand, A Sabre jet can trust. Now when the bad weather keeps the ships down All day we can hear, this horrible sound Attention all pilots, now listen to this There'll be a short meeting, that you dare not miss. They'll give us some lectures, then give us some more But we have all heard them, twenty-five times or more Now listen you trainees, you can't fight the group Whatever they tell you is superfluous poop. STRAFING IN A MOUNTAIN PASS Strafing in mountain pass Couldn't make the turn Twelve tons of thunderjet Watch that Bastard Burn We've fought the MIGs at Kunure, We fought at Sinafee They nailed us down at Kyomipo, and we lost quite a few.

When it's springtime on the Yalu and the napalm is in bloom, And your fifties do the talking and it's just a MIG and you Once again you'll hear the whisper that my fuel is running low. When it's springtime on the Yalu then it's time for us to go. 34

BIG IRON WHEEL A pilot once told me before he died, I swear to God the bastard lied. About a maid with a Twat so wide, That she could never be satisfied. CHORUS: Boob , twat twat... Boob,twat twat. He fashioned for her a big iron wheel, Attached to it was a big.prick of steel. Two brass balls all filled with cream, And the whole fucking thing was run by steam. CHORUS Round and round went the big iron wheel, In and out went the big prick of "steel. Until at last the maiden cried, "Enough, enough, I'm satisfied." CHORUS The end of the story just doesn't quite fit, The pilot tried, but''he couldn't stop it. The maiden was torn from twat to tit. And the whole fucking thing went up in shit. ANITA Knock knock..., Who's there? Anita..., Anita who? CHORUS':' I need a gang bang, I always will, cause a gang bang gives me such a trill. When I was younger and in my prime, I used to gang bang all the ti . . .me . But now I'm older and turning gray, I only-gang bang once a da...y! Knock knock..., Who's there? Karen..., Karen who? I need a suck, I need a fuck, and I ain't carin' who. CHORUS Knock knock. , . , Who's there? Wilma..., Wilma who? I need a fuck, but my zipper's stuck, will my finger do? CHORUS
HOLIDAY SONGS A FEW EXTRA MELODIES TO ADD TO THOSE OFFICE CHRISTMAS PARTIES, ODE TO A GREAT FUCKTN' SAR EFFORT (With apologies to "The Night Before Xmas") One fine day, just last summer (Twas prior to a raid) The jocks were hung over From screwing the maid. So with canopies open And heads hung in grief Their sorrows were many Their crew rest too brief The mission commander By some marvelous feat Got them all to the Anchor Cycled through, then did meet. With those beautiful Thuds Spread in npod" Quite a force The Phantoms moved in Like the old Trojan horse. The MIGs had been scrambled Were headed out east But the gunners are hosing Eight-fives at our beast Why the hell should they hate me I cried in dismay I'm egressing, you bastards So play it my way. But my cry wenx unheeded As our bird took a hit And I knew there and then Things had just turned to shit. Tho' my chances were nil There was fuck else to do But head for the Black With our whole fuckin.' crew So in anger, and pissed Did we drop the whole load On that cock-suckin' gunner's Kids, wife and abode. There was no goddamn grief As I cried out with glee Eat your heart out, you bitch For you'll never get me. So with eighty percent (That was all we could get) We headed for North Point With hopes of a TET But 'twas mostly in vain As we slung past the Red- I knew that my ass Was fuckin' near dead. Cause Yen Bay came alive Like the Fourth of July The flak was so thick That I.wanted to cry. As my two, three, and four Broke down, IMt, then right Leaving us solo In the dwindling light. Well ol' buddy, my number one GIB says to"*me It looks like there's just Gonna be me and thee. And with your goddamn luck We should punch out at ten So the rest of the fall We can take with a grin. For I know just goddamn well As I sit here In fright That both fuckin' chutes Were packed wrong last night. And I want you to know He hastened to add That in case we don't make it Please don't get mad.
It isn't my fault That the pod didn't work I told you that twice You dumb fuckin' jerk. A tank didn't feed The doppler was short (you said) we'll get our counter Mo matter what. Well you got your first counter It may be the last Unless this old whore Can take one more blast. Shut your trap, and eject Was the word of the day So we punched, not at ten But at two, so they say...... A CHRISTMAS CAROL On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me.....

# 1 CLISMA5 SONG Chestnuts roasting on a Thailand fire, Bull frogs singing in the choir, Samlars singing Ho,Ho,Ho It's Melly Clismas you know. Geicos clawing acloss the cold bare floor, Flied lice cooking on the stove, Tee locks kissing neath the mistie toe, It's Melly Clismas you know. Sweet lips waiting for my tender kiss, Garlic breath gets in my way. VC's roasting in a napalm fire Melly Clismas Uncle Ho. Cripples limping down a small side street, Napalm rising at their feet, I dropped it low, but they went too slow, Melly Clismas Uncle Ho. VC making love near a rice paddy, Tee Locks eyes are all aglow, Twenty mike^mikes up his ass, Tee Lock screaming go,go,go. Wolf Pack sends greetings from old Robin Olds, Chappie joined him over there, We'll carry on, the s^ars will be bright, Over Ubon Rajachtani tonight.... 12 DAYS OF COMBAT On the first day of combat the Air Force gave to me... A pilot in a teak tree Two rocket pods Three fuel tanks Four AIM 9s Five thousand pounders Six senen-fifties Ho Chi Minh gave to me...

CHORUS CBUs, Mark 82s, 750s too Daddy Vulcan strikes again Our Christmas gift to you Heads up Ho-Chi-Min, The Fives are on their way, Your luck it has given in, Txhere's gonna be hell to pay Today it is our turn, To make you gawk and stare.
