Lyrics

"She’ll Be Right Flight" (A. Woodley)

Come in are you reading me
Charlie, baby, foxtrot angel
So high
Quickstep on the starlight

Surfin’ Bondi
Picking up the latest
Hits from L.A. on the air
All the way, all the way
Cross the sea from the U.S.A.
Wheel away, wheel away, wheel away

And I remember
You playin’ the T-chest bass
Broom handle and all the crew
Swingin’ at midnight

You are my sunshine
My only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You never know dear
How much I love you
Please don’t take my sunshine away

And I remember
You playin’ the tenor sax
Smoke Gets in Your Eyes
Barefoot Days
Auld Lang Syne
Spanish Serenade
March of the Bobcats

Good Friday rain
Washed our tears away
Broke the drought and saved the town
Tears for the year
Hanging upside sown

And I remember
You took my fear away
Walked the floor at night
And rocked me slowly

Oh gentle presence
Peace and joy and power
Oh life divine
That owns each waiting hour
The love that guards the nestling’s faltering flight
Keep thou my child on upward wing tonight

Beneath the shadow
Of his might wing
In that sweet secret
Of the narrow way
Seeking and finding
With the ange;s sing
Lo, I am with you always
watch and pray

and on the satellite picture tonight
shining bright
heaven’s light
shine on
she’ll be right flight
fly on
she’ll be right flight
safe home
she’ll be right flight
she’ll be right flight
she’ll be right flight
