Downtown
When you fly with the Wolfpack, you get to see a lot of countryside. You get so you know each place by name. Some of those names are pretty hard to pronounce, hut it don't take long to learn. And then there's a few places that don't have names so we name them ourselves: Thud Ridge, Banana Valley, the Loop, the Railroad— both of 'em, MiG
Ridge, the Island...[slipped]
- When you get up at two o'clock in the morning
You can bet you'll go — downtown
Shaking in your boots, you're sweating heavy all over
'Cause you got to go — downtown
Smoke a pack of cigarettes before the briefing's over
Wishing you weren't bombing
Wishing you were flying cover; it's safer that way
The flak is much thicker there
You know, you're biting your nails and you're pulling your hair
- You're going
-
- Downtown, where all the lights are bright
Downtown, you'd rather switch than fight
Downtown, hope you come home tonight —
Downtown
- Planning the route you keep hoping that you
Won't have to go today — downtown
Checking the weather and it's scattered to broken
So you still don't know — downtown
