Quote from the song “Sky Pilot” by Eric Burdon & The Animals

He blesses the boys as they stand in line
The smell of gun grease and their bayonets, they shine
He's there to help them all that he can
To make them feel wanted, he's a good holy man

[Intro]

He blesses the boys as they stand in line
The smell of gun grease and their bayonets, they shine
He's there to help them all that he can
To make them feel wanted, he's a good holy man

[Chorus]

Sky pilot, sky pilot
How high can you fly?
You'll never, never, never
Reach the sky

[Verse 1]

He smiles at the young soldiers, tells them it's all right
He knows of their fear in the forthcoming fight
Soon there'll be blood and many will die
Mothers and fathers back home, they will cry

[Chorus]

Sky pilot, sky pilot
How high can you fly?
You'll never, never, never
Reach the sky

[Verse 2]

He mumbles a prayer and it ends with a smile
The order is given, they move down the line
But he's still behind and he'll meditate
But it won't stop the bleeding or ease the hate

[Verse 3]

As the young men move out into the battle zone
He feels good, with God you're never alone
He feels so tired and he lays on his bed
Hopes the men will find courage in the words that he said

[Chorus]

Sky pilot, sky Pilot
How high can you fly?
You'll never, never, never
Reach the sky

[Verse 4]

You're soldiers of God, you must understand
The fate of your country is in your young hands
May God give you strength do your job real well
If it all was worth it only time it will tell

[Verse 5]

In the morning, they return with tears in their eyes
The stench of death drifts up to the skies
A young soldier so ill looks at the sky pilot
Remembers the words, "Thou shalt not kill"

[Chorus]

Sky pilot, sky pilot
How high can you fly?
You'll never, never, never
Reach the sky

[Chorus]

Sky pilot, sky pilot
How high can you fly?
You'll never, never, never
Reach the sky

[Outro]

You'll never, never, never
Reach the sky
You'll never, never, never
Reach the sky
You'll never, never, never
Reach the sky
You'll never, never, never
Reach the sky
You'll never, never, never
Reach the sky...
