BALLAD OF FRANCIS GARY POWERS
(Red River Dave)

In a lonesome prison cell in darkest Russia
There's a flyer, Francis Powers is his name
He was captured on a mission for his country
And he'll never see old glory wave again

cho: When the clouds are hanging high above the Kremlin
And the moon beams, many happy memories bring
There's a star-spangled banner waving somewhere
That's the song the Russian jailers hear him sing

In a lonesome prison cell in Godless Russia
Where no Bible ever speaks his precious name
There's a boy who flew the U2 for his country
To make sure that no Pearl Harbor comes again

When the clouds are hanging high above the Kremlin
And the moonbeams, many happy memories brings
There's a star-spangled banner waving somewhere
Waving o'er the land of heroes brave and true

When the clouds are hanging high above the Kremlin
And the moonbeams, many happy memories bring
There's a star-spangled banner waving somewhere
That's the song the Russian jailors hear him sing
