During the Battle of Britain, the Luftwaffe gaged several air strikes against numerous targets in Great Britain. Their normal flight path took them over the white cliffs of Dover. This song was meant as encouragement for the British in their darkest moments in the Battle of Bntain, giving them hope of seeing Bluebirds over the White Cliffs of Dover instead of the Luftwaffe. Of particular interest is the line "Jimmy will go to sleep in his own room again..". It meant little Jimmy, who slept outside in an air raid shelter most of the time, might get to sleep in his own room again when the war was over. Interestingly enough, the air raid shelter Jimmy slept in was destroyed by a direct hit one moming, but for some reason Jimmy and his family had decided to sleep in the house that night and nobody was hurt.
