my last rest I hear a beautiful
sound in my ear: OFF we go
into the wild blue yonder, Climbing
high into the sun, Here they
come zooming to meet our
thunder, At ‘em boys, Give ‘er the
gun! Down we dive, spouting
out flame from under, Off with
one helluva roar! We live in fame
or go down in flames. Hey! Nothing
can stop the U.S. Air Force!
Minds of men fashioned a crate
of thunder, Sent it high into the
blue, Hands of men blasted the
world a-sunder, How they lived God only knew! Souls of men
dreaming of skies to conquer, Gave us wings, ever to soar! With
scouts before and bombers galore. Nothing can stop the U.S. Air
Force! Here’s a toast to the host, Of those who love the vastness of
the sky, To a friend we send a message of his brother
men who fly. We drink to those who gave their all of
old, Then down we roar to score the rainbow’s pot
of gold. A toast to the host of men we boast, the
U.S. Air Force! Off we go into the wild sky yonder,
Keep the wings level and true, If you’d live to be a
grey-haired wonder, Keep the nose out of the blue! Flying men,
guarding the nation’s border, we’ll be there followed by more! In
echelon we carry on, Hey! Nothing’ll stop the Air Force! Nothing’ll
stop the U.S. Air Force! By, Robert Mac Arthur Crawford. Sherry
