lyrics

The wire-tapped report to Washington came
From Alaska on the banks of that sad, sad lake
Oh what a state the world would be in
Ol’ Wiley Post he flew into the wind

The Eskimo Claire, he watched from the shore
He’d given ‘em directions just hours before
Their engine stalled flat and their plane dipped again
Ol’ Wiley Post he flew into the wind

Claire ran back to town to tell what he saw
The wreckage, the water, the wings bent like straw
They gathered around to sing Eskimo hymns
They carried the bodies back into the wind

The flags they were lowered down to half mast
They promised the memories of both men would last
One man was called the Cherokee kid
And one Wiley Post who flew into the wind

Let the radio waves bring ‘em back to shore
Let the radio waves bring ‘emback to shore
Let em crash and roll and rip and roar
Let the radio waves bring ‘em back to shore
