Amelia Earhart's Last Flight
Just a ship out on the ocean, a speck against the skyAmelia Earhart flying that sad dayWith her partner, Captain Noonan, on the second of JulyHer plane fell in the ocean far awayThere's a beautiful, beautiful fieldFar away in a land that is fairHappy landings to you, Amelia EarhartFarewell, first lady of the airHalf an hour later her SOS was heardHer signal's weak but still her voice was braveIn shark-infested waters her aeroplane went down that nightIn the blue Pacific to a watery graveThere's a beautiful, beautiful fieldFar away in a land that is fairHappy landings to you, Amelia EarhartFarewell, first lady of the airNow you heard my story 'bout this awful tragedyWe all pray she'll fly home safe againIn years to come, though others blaze a trail across the seaWe'll ne'er forget Amelia and her planeThere's a beautiful, beautiful fieldSongtexteFar away in a land that is fairHappy landings to you, Amelia EarhartFarewell, first lady of the airFarewell, first lady of the air
