IRON MAIDEN - Tailgunner lyrics

rate me

(Harris/Dickinson)

Trace your way back 50 years

To the glow of Dresden - blood and tears

In the black above by the cruel searchlight

Men will die and men will fight - yeah|

Who shot who and who fired first?

Dripping death to whet the bloodthirst

No radar lock on - skin and bone

The bomber boys are going home

chorus

Climb into the sky never wonder why - Tailgunner

You're a Tailgunner

(repeat)

Nail that fokker kill that son.

Gonna blow your guts out with my gun

The weather forecast's good for war

Cologne and Frankfurt? Have some more|

Tail end Charlie in the boiling sky

The Enola Gay was my last try

Now that this Tailgunner's gone

No more bombers (just one big bomb)

chorus
