Amelia Found ft. The Kintners & Heather Newton Lyrics

Twenty fourth of July 1897

Amelia Mary first cried to the sky…

"Get down here Amelia" said your mother with a glare

"Climbing trees is for boys, what's with you my dear?"

Girls whose tastes aren't routine, don't get treated fair

Driven from so young, to be a pioneer

When that pilot flew at you, to scare you away

Lit a spark so, soon, you would conquer the sky

You paid with courage for a fair restless day

Stood your ground, hid your fear, now destined to fly

Amelia you charted your own course

With your willpower, coolness and speed

Rejecting the rules they tried to enforce

Refusing to follow, you took the lead   

You said "Adventure's worthwhile in itself"

Your own thought and action was the goal

Chasing your dream, you left doubts on the shelf

Opened doors to the future through trusting your soul  

Amelia you charted your own course

With your willpower, coolness and speed

Rejecting the rules they tried to enforce

Refusing to follow, you took the lead

Rejecting the rules they tried to enforce

Refusing to follow, you took the lead

Back from school to the air 1927

Amelia would once again fly so high…
