The Aviator - from Young Indiana Jones Chapter 12 - Attack of the Hawkmen

My favorite part from Young Indiana Jones Chapter 12 “Attack of the Hawkmen“ where Indy joins the fight against the German Luftwaffe and faces none other than Manfred von Richthofen, the Red Baron himself. “The (young / poor / bold) Aviator“ is an air force pilot song from WW1 that is sung to the tune of “My Bonnie Lies over the Ocean“ and to whose lyrics there are many variants. The lyrics used here are: A young aviator lay dying And as 'neath the wreckage he lay To the mechanics around him These parting words he did say: Two valve springs you'll find in my stomach Three spark plugs are safe in my lung The prop is in splinters inside me To my fingers the joy-stick has clung Take the cylinders out of my kidneys The connecting rod out of my brain From the small of my back take the crankshaft And assemble the engine again
