Sub Division Nine Lyrics

[Intro]
Take her down!

[Chorus]
Swish, swish, swish, the craft is diving
Straight for a case of native wine
Let's get boosted to the skies
Then go down and never rise
We're the cruising boys of Sub Division Nine

[Verse 1]
It was midnight on the fourth that we left the golden North
And, Lord, but it was hard to break away
But we'd drunk up all the rye, and the bars had all gone dry
So there wasn't any reason there to stay

[Pre-Chorus]
Take her down!

[Chorus]
Swish, swish, swish, the craft is diving
Straight for a case of native wine
Let's gеt boosted to the skies
Thеn go down and never rise
We're the cruising boys of Sub Division Nine

[Verse 2]
Then we went to Hula town where the girls have eyes of brown
Their skirts of grass were waving in the breeze
But we were mowing through the grass when some interfering brass
Told our wives that they should join us overseas

[Pre-Chorus]
Take her down!

[Chorus]
Swish, swish, swish, the craft is diving
Straight for a case of native wine
Let's get boosted to the skies
Then go down and never rise
We're the cruising boys of Sub Division Nine

[Verse 3]
For Guantanamo we steered, but when the smoke had cleared
Not a single girl was there to see
For their parents got the news Sub Division Nine was loose
They had locked 'em up and thrown away the key

[Pre-Chorus]
Take her down!

[Chorus]
Swish, swish, swish, the craft is diving
Straight for a case of native wine
Let's get boosted to the skies
Then go down and never rise
We're the cruising boys of Sub Division Nine

[Verse 4]
Then our fleet continued on to St. Thomas and St. John
It was evening when we landed on the shore
But next morning, just 'fore nine, they had changed the railroad sign
Saying, "These aren't the Virgin Islands anymore"

[Pre-Chorus]
Take her down!

[Chorus]
Swish, swish, swish, the craft is diving
Straight for a case of native wine
Let's get boosted to the skies
Then go down and never rise
We're the cruising boys of Sub Division Nine
