ERIC BURDON & THE ANIMALS - 1968
/>
He blesses the boys as they stand in life
the smell of gun grease and their
bayonets they shine
he's here 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 fears in the forthcoming fight
soon there'll be blood and many
will die
mother 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 humbles a prayer
and it ends with a smile
the order is given they move down the line
but hell stay
behind and he'll meditate
but it won't stop to bleeding or is 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's 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 really well
/>
if it all was worth in only time it will tell.
In the morning they returned with
tears in their eyes
the stench of death drifts up to the skies
a young soldier so it
looks at the sky bright
remember the words thou shalt not kill | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
