Raise a Glass to Flyin' Songtext
von Marc Gunn

Let′s raise a glass to flyin'
Where the Devil fears to tred
To risk the chance of dyin′
For the bright stars overhead
Let's raise a glass to free men
Though we haven't got a dime
Our ship′s as fine as Eden
As to the stars we climb

Let′s raise a glass to runnin'
If the rules get in our way—
It′s better to be flyin'
We can fight another day
Let′s raise a glass to tryin'
When they kick you in the teeth
To getting up, not cryin′,
To stand for your beliefs


Let's raise a glass to crewmates-
Though manners they may lack
When they know a threat awaits,
They've always got your back
Let′s raise a glass to pilots,
Who keep us in the sky
To engineers in violet
Who keep this old girl spry

Let′s raise a glass to sighin'
O′er the ones we leave behind
But you know I'd be lyin′
If I said I really mind
Let's raise a glass to this ol′ ship
There's no finer in the 'Verse
She′s surely worth another sip—
My blessing and my curse
She′s surely worth another sip—
My blessing and my curse
