Lyrics

Ballad of Wally Funk

Let me tell you bout a story
The ballad of Wally Funk
She was born in '39
Lots of guts and spunk
Flyin for America
Before they'd even say
It was the woman just like her
That were gonna save the day

Ever since she was a young girl
Wally dreamed of stellar flight
Obviously was the stuff
Chuck Yeager said was right
And when it seemed about time
To be hangin up her wings
She got a call from Bezos
And moved on to higher things

It's a real life story of a funky flygirl
Always dreamed of headin for the stars
Took a little while to hit the edge of space
Gonna be the oldest woman on Mars

It wasn't always easy
To fly and be a girl
Even though Amelia
Flew around the world
Never bothered Wally
She never wondered why
It was obvious to her
She'd make her place up in the sky

It's a real life story of a funky flygirl
Always dreamed of headin for the stars
Took a little while to hit the edge of space
Gonna be the oldest woman on Mars

The right woman at the right time
Its easy to see why
She put on that Blue face
To be the oldest girl in space
After all who could be
A better front page story
A harbinger of things to come
And also lots of fun

Wally Funk

This is a true funky story aka tribute song. I listened again once with an assistant yesterday who I told later the hook of name "wally funk" kept coming back repeating over in my head. The result is WF is a fun song. Great song for submission next year to the women international day here in the USA. I can see a parade of women in a line with this playing with dancers choreographed to moving to the tempo and smiles. Thank you for sharing again your work. Keep writing using your songwriting talents I've been honored to enjoy as you share with Broadjam pro reviewers. Looking forward to more in 2022 too!
