Snoopy Vs The Red Baron Lyrics & Chords By The Irish Rovers

After the turn of the century
In the clear blue skies over Germany
Came a roar and a thunder men had never heard
Like the scream and the sounds of a big war bird
Up in the sky, a man in a plane
Baron von Richtofin was his name
Eighty men tried, and eighty men died
Now they're buried together on the countryside

Ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty or more
The Bloody Red Baron, would roll up the score
Eighty men died, tryin' to end that spree
Of the Bloody Red Baron, of Germany

In the nick of time, a hero arose
A funny-looking dog, with a big black nose
He flew into the sky to seek revenge
But the Baron shot him down--"Curses, foiled again!"

Ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty or more
The Bloody Red Baron, would roll up the score
Eighty men died, tryin' to end that spree
Of the Bloody Red Baron, of Germany

Now Snoopy had sworn, that he'd get that man
So he asked the Great Pumpkin for a new battle plan
He would challenge the German to a real dogfight
While the Baron was laughing, he got him in his sight

Send twenty, thirty, forty, fifty or more
The Bloody Red Baron, would roll up the score
Eighty men died, tryin' to end that spree
Of the Bloody Red Baron, of Germany

That Bloody Red Baron was in a fix
He'd tried everything, but he'd run out of tricks
Snoopy fired once, and he fired twice
And that Bloody Red Baron went spinning out of sight

Send twenty, thirty, forty, fifty or more
The Bloody Red Baron, would roll up the score
Eighty men died, tryin' to end that spree
Of the Bloody Red Baron, of Germany

Ten! Ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty or more
The Bloody Red Baron, would roll up the score
Eighty men died, tryin' to end that spree
Of the Bloody Red Baron, of Germany
