Speaks: And here's one of the nation's top tunes, as
a matter of fact, it's number one in your hit
parade, the nation's big hit
Coming In On A Wing And A Prayer:
Sings:
Coming in on a wing and a prayer
(coming in on a wing and a prayer)
Coming in on a wing and a prayer
(coming in a plane)
Though there's one who is gone,
we still carry on
We're coming in on a wing and a
prayer (a wing and a prayer).
Watta a show (watta show) what a
fight (watta fight)
Yup, we really hit our target
for tonight (hit our target tonight)
How we sing as we lift through
the air (we lift while we are singing).
Look below, there's our field
over there (over there)
With a full throttle on and our
struts in a storm,
We're coming in on a wing <and a prayer>.
