I remember back in 1943; I was called to go to war

I remember saying to the only one for me; It won’t be long I’ll come back to your door

Our campaign is in Europe; and I know I’ll be all right

I’ll be back to marry you; the world is going crazy

And we’ve got to stand and fight on the land, the sea, and in the sky so blue

               Chorus

               Oh, how I’ll miss New England

               But I was meant to fly

               We’ll be high over Belgium

               My trusty crew and our "Cabin In The Sky"

I remember back in 1944

We were in the middle of the fray

We were feeling lucky

We had twenty bombs on board

God was surely smiling down that day

The squadron hit Ramagen

And we did our very best

But the old bridge she refused to fall

There were a thousand planes around us

And they were merciless

Our men were lost we couldn’t count them all

                 Chorus

                 Oh, how I missed New England

                 But I was meant to fly

                 We were stuck outside of London

                 My trusty crew and our "Cabin In The Sky"

I remember back in 1945

The war was done and we all headed home

I remember saying to the only one for me

From this day on you’ll never be alone

                   Chorus

                   Oh, how I missed New England

                   But I was meant to fly

                   We were all back in our homeland

                    My trusty crew and our "Cabin In The Sky"

I remember back in 1943 we were flying in the sky so blue…
