Aces High Lyrics - Powerslave - Iron Maiden

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 wheelblocks theres no time to waste 

Gathering speed as we head down the runway 

Gotta 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.

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Move in to fire at the mainstream of bombers 

Let off a sharp burst and then turn away 

Roll over, spin round to come in behind them 

Move to their blindsides 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.

Rolling, turning, diving 

Rolling, turning, diving (doing it again) 

Rolling, turning, diving 

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.
