Sky Pilot |
| He blesses the boys as they stand in line |
| The smell of gun grease and the bayonets they shine |
| He’s there to help them all that he can |
| To make them feel wanted he’s a good holy man |
| Sky pilot, sky pilot |
| How high can you fly |
| You’ll never, never, never reach the sky |
| He smiles at the young soldiers tells them it’s all right |
| He knows of their fear in the forthcoming fight |
| Soon there’ll be blood and many will die |
| Mothers and fathers back home they will cry |
| Sky pilot, sky pilot |
| How high can you fly |
| You’ll never, never, never reach the sky |
| He mumbles a prayer and it ends with a smile |
| The order is given, they move down the line |
| But he’s still behind and he’ll meditate |
| But it won’t stop the bleeding or ease the hate |
| As the young men move out into the battle zone |
| He feels good, with God you’re never alone |
| He feels so tired and he lays on his bed |
| Hopes the men will find courage in the words that he said |
| Sky pilot, sky Pilot |
| How high can you fly |
| You’ll never, never, never reach the sky |
| You’re soldiers of God you must understand |
| The fate of your country is in your young hands |
| May God give you strength do your job real well |
| If it all was worth it only time it will tell |
| In the morning they return with tears in their eyes |
| The stench of death drifts up to the skies |
| A young soldier so ill looks at the sky pilot |
| Remembers the words, «Thou shalt not kill» |
| Sky pilot, sky pilot |
| How high can you fly |
| You never, never, never reach the sky |
| Sky pilot, sky pilot |
| How high can you fly |
| You never, never, never reach the sky |
| You never, never, never reach the sky |
| You never, never, never reach the sky |
| You never, never, never reach the sky |
| You never, never, never reach the sky |
