Old Number Nine - Oscar Brand[00:00:00]
Twas a dark and stormy night [00:00:10]
Not a star was there in sight[00:00:12]
All the Mustangs were tied down to the line[00:00:13]
When a lonely volunteer[00:00:17]
Stood in mud up to his ear[00:00:18]
He'd orders to fly old Number Nine [00:00:20]
Well his back was racked[00:00:24]
With pain as he climbed into the plane[00:00:25]
A lonely tear was forming in his eye[00:00:28]
And he offered up a prayer[00:00:31]
As he climbed into the air[00:00:33]
He knew this would be his night to die [00:00:34]
As he flew over Hagaru[00:00:45]
He let loose a bomb or two[00:00:46]
And he figured that he ought to call it quits[00:00:48]
But how was he to know[00:00:52]
That he's fly so doggone low[00:00:53]
That the bomb blast[00:00:55]
Would blow his plane to bits [00:00:56]
In the wreckage he was found [00:00:59]
Thinly spread around the ground[00:01:01]
The Crunchies they raised his weary head[00:01:02]
With his lifetime almost spent[00:01:06]
Here's the message that he sent[00:01:07]
To the buddies who'd be sad[00:01:09]
To see him dead [00:01:11]
I used an eight to ten delay [00:01:12]
But it didn't work that way[00:01:14]
Without a tail a Mustang doesn't fly[00:01:16]
Tell the Skipper now for me [00:01:20]
He's got only twenty-three[00:01:21]
He can roll up the ladder Semper Fi[00:01:23]
