Plainsong - True Story of Amelia Earhart lyrics



You take it or you leave it but I’m telling anyhow
There’s a story you should know
Amelia was a hero in all of your hearts
And that’s all we want you to know

She landed in the headlines on the first day of July
When her Electra hit the ocean bed
And flying fifteen hundred miles from her alloted course
Was not what all the newsstands said

She left with Captain Noonan her navigating force
From New Guinea to the Howland Isle
With thirty minutes fuel left no landfall came the cry
And all of us believed him for awhile

Oh Amelia its true
You’re the lady of the air
This I’m not disputing anyhow
But if what Mr. Goerner said was only half the truth
Then Amelia

For thirty days the Lexington and others searched the sea
Brfore pronouncing “Earhart lost”
And all was going smoothly and the senator’s relaxed
Amelia and Noonan paid the cost

Then a CBS man Goerner was confused by all the facts
He said there’s someone telling lies
Amelia’s plane was not the one they detailed in the news
The fuel tanks alone were twice that size

Oh Amelia its true
You’re the lady of the air
This I’m not disputing anyhow
But if what Mr. Goerner said was only half the truth
Then Amelia

Jesus Salas, one of many, he had no call to lie
He was working in the harbor that day
And Saipan was a wartime stronghold of the Japanese
And Jesus saw the fliers land away

So who’s to point the finger more so
Whose to say what’s right
Me, I just wanted you to hear
How brave Amelia Earhart, first lady of the air
And Frederick Noonan ended their careers

Oh Amelia its true
You’re the lady of the air
This I’m not disputing anyhow
But if what Mr. Goerner said was only half the truth
Then Amelia
