I Wonder When She Will Come Down
(Airplane passing overhead and audience clapping)
Amelia was a woman of just twenty-two
When she took to the sky and she
Thrilled to the view
Most pilots were men
And their airplanes still new
But she felt this was what she should do
In the Friendship she flew straight to England
She wrote books that recorded her flights
She won trophies for going so fast and so high
And for flying alone through the night
She flies through the air with
The greatest of ease
The daring young girl in her flying machine
Her efforts are graceful
All eyes does she please
I wonder when she will come down
(Airplane passing overhead and audience clapping)
She was brave, she was bold
And outspoken
Known to all for a smile like the sun
She told women to follow their deepest desires
To do things that had never been done
She flies through the air with
The greatest of ease
The daring young girl in her flying machine
Her efforts are graceful
All eyes does she please
I wonder when she will come down
I wonder if she will come down
(Airplane passing overhead)
Amelia was a woman of just twenty-two
When she took to the sky and she
Thrilled to the view
Most pilots were men
And their airplanes still new
But she felt this was what she should do
In the Friendship she flew straight to England
She wrote books that recorded her flights
She won trophies for going so fast and so high
And for flying alone through the night
She flies through the air with
The greatest of ease
The daring young girl in her flying machine
Her efforts are graceful
All eyes does she please
I wonder when she will come down
(Airplane passing overhead and audience clapping)
She was brave, she was bold
And outspoken
Known to all for a smile like the sun
She told women to follow their deepest desires
To do things that had never been done
She flies through the air with
The greatest of ease
The daring young girl in her flying machine
Her efforts are graceful
All eyes does she please
I wonder when she will come down
I wonder if she will come down
(Airplane passing overhead)
