Higher, the king of the sky He’s flying too fast and he’s flying too high He’s flying higher, an eye for an eye The legend will never die Higher! Born a soldier, from the horseback to the skies And the legend never dies And he’s flying And he’s flying And he’s flying ========= Historic Fact ========== A great symbol of World War I, Manfred Albrecht Freiherr von Richthofen, known as The Red Baron, was a killer in the skies. On April 21, 1918, his red triplane came to a stop and he was killed by a single bullet through the heart. ================================== Sabaton is a registered and protected trademark.
