Song of the Seahawks

Words and music by 1st Lt. Daniel B. Schuffman

Raise your cup to the Sixty-three
Best dam bunch you'll ever see
Stand up and be gay 'cause we're drinkin-em-up
We're drinkin-em-up 'til the break of day
for we're the Seahawks Sixty-three

We're veterans of the sky
We'll back up every boast
You will drink a toast when the Seahawks go by
So drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink

Life is a lark
It's just a spark
And what the hell we're used to dark
So drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink

Show them everywhere
We're the best that's in the air
For we're the Seahawks Sixty-three
Veterans of the sky
We'll back up every boast
And you will drink a toast
When the Seahawks go by.

Dedicated to 2nd Lt James E "Bucky" O'Brien of LaGrange, Illinois, killed in action on December 7th, 1944 while serving with the 63rd Bomb Squadron and to all the others like him who didn't "Come Home"
