Wings Over The Navy.

Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. Jan 2001.

A sailor is a guy they call a tar,
A Tar's a guy who sails the seas afar;

but listen all you country boys
if ever you come to town,

and if you want some pips up or a star,
pick out the aviation when you put your moniker down.

Wings over the Navy,
Wings over the sea,

We're top of the service,
the Navy's cavalry,

High over the ocean,
flying wide and free,

The soldiers, sailors, and marines
are demons at pinching all the scenes,

or posing in the magazines,
but we're the navy's eyes, the Admiral's fireflies,

we're high sky~ridin' aeronautical guys,
Wings over the Navy, Sailing the Seven Seas

Wings over the Navy,
Wings over the sea,

We're top of the service,
the Navy's cavalry,

High over the ocean,
flying wide and free,

The soldiers, sailors, and marines
are demons at pinching all the scenes,

or posing in the magazines,
but if there's gonna be,

a fightin' jamboree,
the thing to do is let the enemy see,

Wings on the horizon,
Wings of the old Navee.

You've got to hand it to the infantry,
although they've never been to see the sea,

they've always got to slog along,
however it rains or snows.
But way up there you're roaming fancy free,

so get inside your flying suit,
and join the show of shows.

Wings over the Navy,
Wings over the sea,

We're top of the service,
the Navy's cavalry,

High over the ocean,
flying wide and free,

The soldiers, sailors, and marines
are demons at pinching all the scenes,

or posing in the magazines,
but we're the navy's eyes, the Admiral's fireflies,

we're high sky~ridin' aeronautical guys,
Wings over the Navy, Sailing the Seven Seas

Wings over the Navy,
Wings over the sea,

We're top of the service,
the Navy's cavalry,

High over the ocean,
flying wide and free,

The soldiers, sailors, and marines
are demons at pinching all the scenes,

or posing in the magazines,
but if there's gonna be,

a fightin' jamboree,
the thing to do is let the enemy see,

Wings on the horizon,
Wings of the old Navee.
