Letras
Out on the tarmac the props are still warm
Silver birds gleaming in the moonlight's charm
The band strikes a riff and the hangar doors swing
Girls in their dresses hear the jitterbug sing
The engines are quiet but the rhythm is loud
We're flyboys and sweethearts, we're out on the town
Swing in the hangar tonight, let's cut a rug right
With a wing and a prayer and a girl in sight
Twirl those skirts high, let the freedom ring
Dancing with my darlin' to the big band swing
Oh swing in the hangar tonight, hearts taking flight
Warriors and roses in the soft hangar light
B-25 mitchell with her lines so fine
She's jealous tonight 'cause this gal's all mine
B-24 watching from the shadows so grand
While we're lindy hopping across this old land
Roll out the runway, let the spotlight ignite
We're stealing these moments beneath starry night
Tomorrow we'll climb where the wild blue calls
But tonight we're together inside these steel walls
Swing in the hangar tonight, let's burn up the floor
Two bucks for a ticket and we're ready for more
Stars overhead and the red white and blue
Swinging with my baby, doing what we do
Oh swing in the hangar tonight, feel that freedom ignite
Dancing for tomorrow in the 1940s light
Hey mister pilot, can your fortress fly
Only as high as my sweetheart's sigh
Hey pretty baby, can you keep this beat
Long as my soldier keeps me on my feet
Swing in the hangar, hey, swing in the hangar! hey
Swing in the hangar tonight, we ain't gonna stop
For uncle sam, for the girl in my arms
For liberty's promise and victory's charms
So wind up that victrola, let the trumpets soar
We'll dance till the dawn through the hangar door
With warbirds behind us and love up ahead
Swing in the hangar forever till the war is dead
Yeah, swing in the hangar tonight
