HE WEARS A PAIR OF SILVER WINGS
Michael Carr & Eric Maschwitz
As recorded by Kay Kyser & His Orchestra, Harry Babbitt, vocalist.

Although some people say he's just a crazy guy,
To me he means a million other things,
For he's the one who taught this happy heart of mine to fly.
He wears a pair of silver wings.
And though it's pretty tough, the job he does above,
I wouldn't have him change it for a king.
An ordinary fellow in a uniform I love,
He wears a pair of silver wings.

Why, I'm so full of pride when we go walking
Every time he's home on leave,
He, with those wings on his tunic,
And me with my heart on my sleeve.

And when I'm left alone and we are far apart,
I sometimes wonder what tomorrow brings,
For I adore that crazy guy who taught my happy heart
To wear a pair of silver wings.

For I adore that crazy guy who taught my happy heart
To wear a pair of silver wings.
