Irish Rovers Miscellaneous The Biplane, Evermore Way out at London Airport In Hangar Number Four A lonely little biplane slept Whose name was Evermore His working days were over No more would he sail Upon his wings above the clouds, Flying the royal mail [chorus] Bye-bye, biplane Once-upon-a-sky plane Bye-bye, hush a bye, Lulla-biplane All the mighty jet planes Would look down their nose They’d laugh and say, “Oh, I’m so glad That I’m not one of those.” And Evermore would shake away The teardrops from his wings And dream of days when he again Could do heroic things [chorus] Then one day the fog and rain Had closed the airport down And all the mighty jet planes Were helpless on the ground When a call came to the airport For a mercy flight ‘Twould be too late, they could not wait someone must fly tonight. They rolled the little biplane Out to Runway Number Five And though he looked so small and weak He knew he could survive And as he rose into the storm The jet planes hung their wings And they hoped someday, like Evermore, To do heroic things. [chorus] And so, my billy bundle I have spun a tale for you You must learn there’s nothing In this world that you can’t do. Now, do not be discouraged By circumstance or size Remember Evermore And set your sights up in the skies. [chorus fades out] (voice over) Goodnight, Wilbur. Goodnight, Orville. |
