The winter came to West-Berlin in 1948
A city split and locked up behind an iron gate
The Soviets closed the highways back in June
Expecting the city to be starving soon
But every hour on the hour
Airplanes of the western powers
Would be seen in the sky of West-Berlin
Ho ho ho - Hope-eration
Little Vittles
Little Vittles
The Cold War raged and in the middle
West-Berlin - supply lines brittle
Ho ho ho - Hope-eration
Little Vittles
Little Vittles
The Cold War raged and in the middle
A plane carries hope on wings that wiggle
Ho ho hope on wings that wiggle
Little Vittles

Ho ho hope on wings that wiggle
Seeing the children of Berlin moved Gail Halvorsen
And he decided to act without authorization
Dropped candy from his airplane and said to the kids
"You will see me coming, I will wiggle with my wings!"
And every hour on the hour
Airplanes of the western powers
Would be seen in the sky of West-Berlin
Ho ho ho - Hope-eration

The Cold War raged and in the middle

The Cold War raged and in the middle
A plane carries hope on wings that wiggle
Ho ho hope on wings that wiggle
Little Vittles

Ho ho hope on wings that wiggle
Kids see what the west wind brings
It is Uncle Wiggly Wings
Spreading candy, spreading hope
The Candy Bombers Christmas Drop
At Tempelhof the airplanes touched the snow
They carried more than food, they carried peoples hope
And when the spring of 49 broke through the winter's cold
The blockade was lifted, but the story was still told
Of the pilot dropping candy on the roads
Ho ho ho - Hope-eration

The Cold War raged and in the middle
