(Dickie Peterson & Andrew "Duck" MacDonald)
I went down to the town tonight
The sky was fire to the Devil`s delight
The soul was flashing like a burning sun
With a mighty blast you know the war was won.
We`ll not forget that time of day
Called it Hell in an angry way
The world was changed and what a price to pay
The night they scrambled the Enola Gay.
I went down to the fire pool
I heard the screams, saw the dancing fool
No place to run and no place to hide
The victims lost and the winners died.
We`ll not forget that time of day
Called it Hell in an angry way
The world was changed and what a price to pay
The night they scrambled the Enola Gay.
("Prepare to run. Prepare to run. Boooooommm!")
