He Ain't Gonna Fly No More
By: Bulldog

Laying in my bunk at night,
Alarms blare- no sleep for me,
Out of bed and in th'air,
Though I can barely see!

He ain't gonna fly no more!
He ain't gonna fly no more!
High and tighty, Force almighty, who the hell are we?
Flotsam Imp's be damned, we're the pilots o' Renegade!
We ain't gonna die no more!

The Skipper's called the target,
It's time to make my run,
Lock my load onto their bridge,
Strayed in line with a gun!

He ain't gonna fly no more!
He ain't gonna fly no more!
High and tighty, Force almighty, who the hell are we?
Flotsam, Imp's be damned, we're the pilots o' Renegade!
We ain't gonna die no more!

Ate the blast that bounced my ass
Barely stayed on my line
Press the stud the torp's a dud
Boom goes my magazine!

He ain't gonna fly no more!
He ain't gonna fly no more!
High and tighty, Force almighty, who the hell are we?
Flotsam, Imp's be damned, we're the pilots o' Renegade!
We ain't gonna die no more!

Pulling on the loud handle,
My ship got turned to ash,
Feel the jets beneath my seat,
Blasting me in the ass!

He ain't gonna fly no more!
He ain't gonna fly no more!
High and tighty, Force almighty, who the hell are we?
Flotsam, Imp's be damned, we're the pilots o' Renegade!
We ain't gonna die no more!

Coughing through the smoke and fire,
Cooking inside my gear,
Feel the tug of a tractor,
Too fast to feel the fear!

He ain't gonna fly no more!
He ain't gonna fly no more!
High and tighty, Force almighty, who the hell are we?
Flotsam, Imp's be damned, we're the pilots o' Renegade!
Annnnnd we ain't gonna die no more!

Raise the Bar
By: Bulldog (With help from ChatGPT)

Gather round, ye Renegades, let's raise a glass or two
We've flown through hairy furballs, and made it safely through
Our ships have taken us high and far, to lands both far and near
So let's hoist our mugs up high, and give a hearty cheer!

Drink up, me hearties, yo ho!
Let's raise a glass to the skies we know
From dawn till dusk, we've flown so far
So let's drink up, and raise the bar!

We've flown through clouds and sunshine, through rain and sleet and snow
Our engines roared and thundered, as we soared up high and low
We've battled through the turbulence, and braved the winds of change,
But through it all, we've stuck together, a crew that can't be exchanged!

Drink up, me hearties, yo ho!
Let's raise a glass to the skies we know
From dawn till dusk, we've flown so far
So let's drink up, and raise the bar!

So here's to all us pilots who've made the skies their home
Flown with us through the heavens, and shown us lands unknown
May your wings stay strong and true, as you soar across the sky
And may your spirits never falter, as you raise your glasses high!

Drink up, me hearties, yo ho!
Let's raise a glass to the skies we know
From dawn till dusk, we've flown so far
So let's drink up, and raise the bar!

High and Fast
By: Bulldog (with help from ChatGPT)

We are the Renegades of the sky, with a mission to defend
Our snub fighters, they roar on high, as we fight to the very end
We face the Imps with courage bold, and never will we yield
We are the chosen few, the brave, who'll always take the field.

We fly high, we fly fast, we never let our guard down
Our mission is to keep the peace, and we'll never back down
We are the Renegade Wing, we're proud to serve the galaxy
So let's take to the skies, and let our courage defend the free

We've trained for years, we've faced the best, and now we're ready to fight
We'll take the fight to the enemy, and show them our might
Our ships are sleek, our weapons deadly, and we'll use them all with skill
We are the elite, the chosen few, and we always live to thrill

We fly high, we fly fast, we never let our guard down
Our mission is to keep the peace, and we'll never back down
We are the Renegade Wing, we're proud to serve the galaxy
So let's take to the skies, and let our courage defend the free

We face danger every day, and we never know what's in store
But we have each other's backs, and that's what we're fighting for
Our brothers and our sisters, who fly beside us in the sky
We'll always have their backs, and we'll never say die

We fly high, we fly fast, we never let our guard down
Our mission is to keep the peace, and we'll never back down
We are the Renegade Wing, we're proud to serve the galaxy
So let's take to the skies, and let our courage defend the free

Dear Old Friends
By: Silence

Hi! Hello! My new wingmen
It's not been long, but we'll be friends
We go out into the black
And when Imps show up,
We watch each other's back

Hi! Hello! My best of friends
Reassigned, but we'll meet again
We go out with someone new
But the heavens all know,
Every flight I miss you

Hi! Hello! My dear old friends
It's been a long time, but we meet again
I thought I knew what to say
But when you showed up,
All my words went away

Hi! Hello! My lonely end
A long time coming, I have to say
I thought I could cheat you, Death
But as it all burns
I must draw my last breath

Hi! Hello! My dear old friends
It's been a long time, but we meet again
I knew I would find you here
In the endless skies,
Let us share another beer.

Renegades' Drinking Song
By: Gremlin

Oh there once was a wing of pilots bold
The bravest fighters to behold
Rogue and Buccaneer, Sabre too,
Spectre and Corsair

Soon may the Renegades come
To vape Imperials, one by one
Then when the fighting is done
The SSD's their home

Oh the Rogues, they think they are the best
So much better than the rest
You know who's really in control?
It's their kriffing droids!

Soon may the Renegades come
To vape Imperials, one by one
Then when the fighting is done
The SSD's their home

Oh Buccaneer, they go boom boom
Big explosions shake the room
Shake the sense out of their heads
Buccaneers are slow

Soon may the Renegades come
To vape Imperials, one by one
Then when the fighting is done
The SSD's their home

Oh fast Corsair think they're the best
Eggshell driving, what a test
A-wings break up when you sneeze
Corsairs are all mad

Soon may the Renegades come
To vape Imperials, one by one
Then when the fighting is done
The SSD's their home

Oh Spectre grew up all alone
Now they're a squadron of their own
Their colors are a ghostly green
Spectres all go 'boo'!

Soon may the Renegades come
To vape Imperials, one by one
Then when the fighting is done
The SSD's their home

Oh Sabre is our savior team
When they're drifting, they're a dream
But when we're in the SSD
They still buy the drinks!

Soon may the Renegades come
To vape Imperials, one by one
Then when the fighting is done
The SSD's their home

Soon may the Renegades come
To vape Imperials, one by one
Then when the fighting is done
The SSD's their home

Save a Fighter Pilot's Ass
By: Wolf

May, the Force be withya, the Force be withya
Throw a credchip on the grass- Save a fighter pilot's ass.
May, the Force be withya, the Force be withya
Throw a credchip on the grass and you'll be saved.

I was cruising down the Yavin, doing one and twenty per
When a call came from the General, Oh won't you save me sir?
Got three torp holes in my wing tips, and my tanks ain't got no gas.
Mayday, mayday, mayday, I got six TIEs on my ass.

May, the Force be withya, the Force be withya
Throw a credchip on the grass- Save a fighter pilot's ass.
May, the Force be withya, the Force be withya
Throw a credchip on the grass and you'll be saved.

I shot my delta pattern, and to me it looked alright,
The on-speed read one-thirty, I really racked it tight!
Then the S-foil gave a shudder, the engine gave a wheeze,
Mayday, mayday, mayday, spin instructions please.

May, the Force be withya, the Force be withya
Throw a credchip on the grass- Save a fighter pilot's ass.
May, the Force be withya, the Force be withya
Throw a credchip on the grass and you'll be saved.

It was corkscrew on my attack run, and I got too Sith Damn low
But I pressed that bloody button, and I let those babies go
Sucked the stick back fast as blazes, when I hit a high nova flare
I won't see my mother when there's a new damn Death Star.

May, the Force be withya, the Force be withya
Throw a credchip on the grass- Save a fighter pilot's ass.
May, the Force be withya, the Force be withya
Throw a credchip on the grass and you'll be saved.

They sent me down to Coruscant, the brief said 'no TIEs'
By the time that I arrived there, my shields were mostly fried
Then my engine coughed and sputtered, it was too cut up to fly
Mayday, mayday, mayday, I'm too young to die!

May, the Force be withya, the Force be withya
Throw a credchip on the grass- Save a fighter pilot's ass.
May, the Force be withya, the Force be withya
Throw a credchip on the grass and you'll be saved.

I bailed out from the wreck, and the landing came out fine
With my E and E equipment, I made for our front line.
When I opened up the ration, to see what was in it,
The God damn quartermaster filled the tin with bantha shit.

May, the Force be withya, the Force be withya
Throw a credchip on the grass- Save a fighter pilot's ass.
May, the Force be withya, the Force be withya
Throw a credchip on the grass and you'll be saved.

Boogie Woogie Jedi Boy
By: Wildcard

He was a famous farmer boy from out Tat-ooine dunes,
He had a Jedi sense that no-one else could use,
He was the top man in the fleet,
But then his powers cam up, and he was gone with fast-feet,
He is a Jedi now, a hero rebel kid
He's the boogie woogie Jedi boy, the kids wanna be

They say he saved a princess- from Alderaan
It really brought him down because she liked nice men
The Princess seemed to understand
And the next day the gal, went out and married the man
And then the squadrons jumped, when he turned Rebel-y
He's the boogie woogie Scoundrel boy, the Hutts wanna freeze

She was a Princess of paradise in the core,
Always wanting change, never something more,
The old man was her only hope,
But then her brother showed up, at the end of her rope,
She is the leader now, a Jedi Princess gal,
She's the boogie woogie Jedi gal, we all wanna be!

What Shall We Do?
By: Gremlin

What shall we do with a drunken Bulldog,
What shall we do with a drunken Bulldog,
What shall we do with a drunken Bulldog?
When the furball's starting.

Hide him in a room till the fighting's over,
Hide him in a room till the fighting's over,
Hide him in a room till the fighting's over,
Keep him out of trouble.

Put him in the brig till he's clean and sober,
Put him in the brig till he's clean and sober,
Put him in the brig till he's clean and sober,
It'll take a while, though.

Stick him in a B-wing and see what happens,
Stick him in a B-wing and see what happens,
Stick him in a B-wing and see what happens,
He's a drunken fighter.

What shall we do with a drunken Bulldog,
What shall we do with a drunken Bulldog,
What shall we do with a drunken Bulldog?
Quick, the furball's starting!

Battle Calls Once More
By: Dragon

The Empire looms, and close to home.
Star Destroyers like afore.
Sharpen your claws, spread your wings.
Battle calls once more.

Come on men, fire the guns.
Turbolasers by the score.
Sail the void, evade the bolts.
Battle calls once more.

The Empire's here to take our lands.
Crush our souls, snuff our lives.
Stand firm, steel your hearts.
Battle calls once more.

Stormtroopers on the ground.
Lay down suppressive fire.
Duck and cover, weapons free.
They are oblivion bound.

Laser fire from the skies.
Tears down the enemy lines.
Defiance and Retribution just arrived.
In time to turn the tides.

The Empire looms, and close to home.
Star Destroyers like afore.
Vigilant broadsides, Renegade Wings.
Battle calls once more.

Thrawn of a Yarn
By: Savage
Listen

I've got a Thrarn of a yarn to tell ya lads,
A Thrarn of a yarn or two
Bout the puffin porgs and the girls I've loved
On nights like this with the stars above
A Thrarn of a yarn and it's all true
I swear by my tattoo

There was a Mando Katan
Met her down in Mandalo-or
She told me I, was the only one she ador-ored
Then one day her, love it lost its savor
Blow me down and pick me up!
She left me for a Saber!

I've got a Thrarn of a yarn to tell ya lads,
A Thrarn of a yarn or two
Bout the puffin porgs and the girls I've loved
On nights like this with the stars above
A Thrarn of a yarn and it's all true
I swear by my tattoo

Then there's the Wookiee Ghrutacha
Met her in the woods of Kashyyk's
She'd lift me up
With one paw gripping both my ass-cheeks
Then she gave me, the scare of my young life
Blow me down and pick me up!
She was the Chieftain's wife!

I've got a Thrarn of a yarn to tell ya lads,
A Thrarn of a yarn or two
Bout the puffin porgs and the girls I've loved
On nights like this with the stars above
A Thrarn of a yarn and it's all true
I swear by my tattoo

Then there was this Sith Inquisitor
Had a look that spelled out danger
My heart quivered, when she whispered she'd force choke me later
Bought her trinkets, at every last space dock
And when I'd spent my last cred-it
She spaced me out the lock!

I've got a Thrarn of a yarn to tell ya lads,
A Thrarn of a yarn or two
Bout the puffin porgs and the girls I've loved
On nights like this with the stars above
A Tharn of a yarn and it's all true
I swear by my tattoo
