Climbing high into the sun;
Here they come zooming to meet our thunder,
At ‘em now, give ‘em the gun!

Off with one helluva roar;
We live in fame or go down in flame.

Here's a toast to the host

To a friend we send a message of the brave who serve on high.
We drink to those who gave their all of old,
Then down we roar to score the rainbow's pot of gold.

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!
Fly to fight, guarding the nation's border,
We'll be there, followed by more!
In echelon we carry on.
Oh, nothing'll stop the U.S. Air Force!
