Amelia Earhart's Last Flight by Greenbriar Boys

Amelia Earhart's Last Flight Lyrics

Well a ship out on the ocean
Just a speck against the sky
Amelia Earhart flying sad that day
With her partner Captain Noonan
On the second of July
Her plane fell in the ocean far away
There's a beautiful beautiful field
Far away in a land that is fair
Happy landings to you Amelia Earhart
Farewell first lady of the air
Well a half an hour later
An SOS was heard
The signal weak but still her voice was brave
Oh in shark infested waters
Her plane went down that night
In the blue Pacific to a watery grave
There's a beautiful beautiful field
Far away in a land that is fair
Happy landings to you Amelia Earhart
Farewell first lady of the air
Well now you have heard my story
Of that awful tragedy
We pray that she might fly home safe again
Oh in years to come though others
Blaze a trail across the sea
We'll never forget Amelia and her plane
For there's a beautiful beautiful field
Far away in a land that is fair
Happy landings to you Amelia Earhart
Farewell first lady of the air
