The Royal Guardsmen Snoopy vs The Red Baron Lyrics

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 screamin' sound of a big war bird

Up in the sky, a man in a plane
Baron von Richthofen was his name
Eighty men tried, and eighty men died
Now they're buried together on the countryside

{Refrain}
Ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty or more
The b_____ Red Baron was rollin' up the score
Eighty men died tryin' to end that spree
Of the b_____ 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

{Refrain}

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

That b_____ 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 b_____ Red Baron went spinning out of sight

{Refrain Twice}

You remember that Baron flying high in the sky
Snoopy shot him down with a gleam in his eye
But that German had leaped from his blood red plane
Just before it burst into a ball of flame

Snoopy circled back to check his kill
Saw that b_____ Red Baron standin' high on a hill
Then he swooped down low, shouted, Curse you, Red Baron!"
The German shook his fist, you could hear him swear, "Ach, du Liebe"

{Refrain}
Hey watch out there Snoopy, you're really in a mess
You thought you were through with that b_____ Red Baron
But it looks like he's not down yet

Then a cry went up all over the land
The b_____ Red Baron would strike again
But brave little Snoopy said, "Never fear"
As he headed for his plane all the people cheered

{Refrain}

Snoopy blazed a trail straight across the sea
Searchin' in vain for his enemy
Then he found that German trying to fix his plane
A sweatin' and a busted, 'bout to go insane

Snoopy landed for a pistol duel
The Baron was worried, Snoopy was cool
He fired a shot then started to run
Before Snoopy had a chance to raise his gun

{As Refrain}
Hey watch out Red Baron, Snoopy is on your trail
One of these days he's gonna make you pay
And you'll go straight to -
Well, watch out Red Baron...
Well, watch out Red Baron...
...And you'll go straight to well
