Itazuke Tower Songtext
von Oscar Brand

Itazuke Tower, this is Air Force eight-oh-one
I′m turnin' on the downwind leg and my prop is overrun
My coolant′s overheated, the gauge says one-two-one
You'd better get the crash crew out and get them on the run

Listen Air Force eight-oh-one, this is Itazuke Tower
I cannot call the crash crew out, this is their coffee hour
You're not cleared in the pattern now, that is plain to see
So take it once around again, you′re not a VIP


Itazuke Tower, this is Air Force eight-oh-one
I′m turnin' on my final, I′m running on one lung
I'm gonna land this Mustang, no matter what you say
I′m gonna get my charts squared up, before that Judgment Day

Now listen, Air Force 801, this is Itazuke Tower
We'd like to let you in right now, but we haven′t got the power
We'll send a note through channels and wait for a reply
Until we get permission back, just chase around the sky!

Itazuke Tower, this is Air Force eight-oh-one
I'm up in Pilot′s Heaven and my flyin′ days are done
I'm sorry that I blew up, I couldn′t make the grade
I guess I should have waited 'till the landing was okayed!
