Alan Blaikley - Alcock And Brown Lyrics

I'm gonna tell a story 'bout a crazy scene
Two intrepid fellas and their flying machine
They flew the wild 90 back in 1919
(Aah, aah, aah)
"It can't be done, don't perish in the sea, who do they think they are?"

Alcock and Brown, that was their name, and on that day they first found fame
(Alcock and Brown) Driven from Newfoundland to The Emerald Isle
Yes the King and Queen came down, and they gave 10,000 pounds (Aah, aah)
To Captain J. Alcock and Luten Luntay Brown

They left St. Johns on 5:30 at Saturday
2,000 miles in those days was a long, long way
Their final destination was a stowaway bay
(Aah, aah, aah)
"Good luck boys, we're so proud of you, God be with you"

Alcock and Brown, that was their name, and on that day they first found fame
(Alcock and Brown) Driven from Newfoundland to The Emerald Isle
Yes the King and Queen came down, and they gave 10,000 pounds (Aah, aah)
To Captain J. Alcock and Luten Luntay Brown

The weather came on foggy like they'd never known
The radio was broken, they were on their own
Above to coldened land where no men had flown
(Aah, aah, aah)
"We're landing though, yes there's land, yes we made it!"
Alcock and Brown, that was their name, and on that day they first found fame
(Alcock and Brown) Driven from Newfoundland to The Emerald Isle
Yes the King and Queen came down, and they gave 10,000 pounds (Aah, aah)
To Captain J. Alcock and Luten Luntay Brown

Alcock and Brown, Alcock and Brown
Alcock and Brown, Alcock and Brown
