Searched for it and didn't find it posted already.
Very moving video recording of it.

When I was a kid we used to sing during the terrifying air raid drills.

I was stuck at Wendy’s on lunch break just down the road in Temple when the sirens started.

I remember the air raid drills but no one dared make a sound.
You’d have taken you life in your hands.
And then you’d have to go home and face your parents.

The only songs we spontaneously sung in grade school, particularly on bus rides, was “100 bottle of beer”.

We had singing when we were in school during airaids-—in the basement—— this was Boston,but it must have been different for you.
Keeping silent must have been tough.

That’s a new one to me-—it’s rather clever. Since I was a Boston kid we would have said “roolah” so the rhyming would be pretty good.

We crouched under our desks or sheltered in the coat room and then filed outside for the fire drill that immediately followed.

You went OUTSIDE during an air raid drill——or did you go out after the all-clear sounded?
God,it seems like yesterday sometimes.

When I was a kid we sang "....The school is burning down!" to the same tune. It was great fun, until one night some kid really did burn down one school building. The dreaded Caforium, built in 1948, using the kitchen and tables from a scrapped battleship.
Yes, I did attend one of those school districts. Half redneck, half serious redneck.

No.
Inside under the desks or in the coat room for the air raid drill and then there was a fire alarm under the presumption that after an attack the building would be burning so we had a fire drill.

I remember crouching under the desks. By the same token, since we were living within 10 miles of the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard, we joked about that being the way to get ready to kiss our a$$es goodbye.
