Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Time was runnin' out for all on board
Soarin' up through the shadows of night
High above the clouds, the engines roared
This would be their final flight
[Verse 2]
The Russians have shot down a plane on its way to Korea
Two hundred and sixty nine innocent victims have died
[Verse 3]
Murder in the skies came without a warning
Murder in the skies, black September morning
Murder in the skies
[Verse 4]
Time was runnin' out for everyone
Flyin' over the Sea of Japan
None would live to see the risin' sun
Death was followin' close at hand
[Verse 5]
The Russians have shot down a plane on its way to Korea
Two hundred and sixty nine innocent victims have died
[Verse 6]
Murder in the skies came without a warning
Murder in the skies, black September morning
Murder in the skies came without a warning
Murder in the skies, black September morning
[Verse 7]
Murder in the skies came without a warning
Murder in the skies, black September morning
Murder in the skies came without a warning
Murder in the skies, black September morning
[Verse 8]
Murder in the skies
Murder in the skies
Murder in the skies
Murder, murder in the skies
Murder in the skies
