A ship out on the ocea, just a speck against the sky, Amelia Earhart's flying sad that day. With her partner, Captain Newman on the second of July, Her plane fell in the ocean far away. CHORUS: 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 S.O.S. was heard The signal weak, but still her voice was brave. In the shark-infested waters, her plane went down that night, In the blue pacific to a watery grave. (chorus) Well now you've heard my story of that awful tragedy We pray that she may fly home safe again. Oh, in years to come, though others, blaze a trail a trail across the sea, We'll ne'er forget Amelia and her plane. (chorus)
