" SKYGUNNERS "

Sometimes in the night I awake to the day
Only to wonder what made us feel this way
Then within my mind I think of the time
Fighting in a war called Vietnam . . .


All of us that served did it with great pride
From Bein Hoa to China Beach watching the tide
Now many years later I think of the time
Fighting in a war called Vietnam . . .


Gunners in the sky this may be the day you die
Flying over the tree-tops, of Vietnam . . .
Gunners in the sky this may be the day you die
Flying over the tree-tops, of Vietnam . . .


Praying everyday Vietnam wasn't a lie
Riding in those tin-can's they said wouldn't fly
Cause everybody knew what you needed came from the sky
Fighting in a war called Vietnam . . .


Gunners in the sky this may be the day you die
Flying over the tree-tops, of Vietnam . . .
Gunners in the sky this may be the day you die
Flying over the tree-tops, of Vietnam
In Vietnam . . .
In Vietnam . . .



**Dedicated to all Helicopter Pilots & Crewmembers and to the
Grunts in the field, " Welcome Home " **.
