IRON MAIDEN LYRICS - Aces High Lyrics

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. 

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 
Running, scrambling, flying, going in again 
Rolling, turning, diving 
Running, scrambling, flying 
Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die 
Won't you run, live to fly, fly to live, Aces high
