The song commemorating Amy Johnson, recorded by Pat O'Malley with the Jack Hylton Orchestra in Berlin 1930:
There's a little lady
Who has captured every heart
Amy Johnson, it's you
We have watched and waited
Since the day you made your start
Amy Johnson, it's true
Since the news that you are safe has come along
Everyone in town is singing this love song
Amy, wonderful Amy
How can you blame me for loving you
Since you won the praise of every nation
You have filled my heart with admiration
Amy, wonderful Amy
I'm proud of the way you flew
Believe me, Amy, you cannot blame me, Amy
For falling in love with you
(Instrumental Break)
SPOKEN:
She's landed in Vienna
Here she is in Baghdad
Now she's over Karachi
She's reached Port Darwin ..... Bravo!
She's up again, she's off to Brisbane
Here she comes, there's something wrong
Gracious, what's wrong
She's crashed, no, she's safe
(Amy, wonderful Amy)
(How can you blame me for loving you)
Since you won the praise of every nation
You have filled my heart with admiration
(Sounds of crowds cheering)
Who has captured every heart
Amy Johnson, it's you
We have watched and waited
Since the day you made your start
Amy Johnson, it's true
Since the news that you are safe has come along
Everyone in town is singing this love song
Amy, wonderful Amy
How can you blame me for loving you
Since you won the praise of every nation
You have filled my heart with admiration
Amy, wonderful Amy
I'm proud of the way you flew
Believe me, Amy, you cannot blame me, Amy
For falling in love with you
