From Darwin to Melbourne one shout is ascending:
   "Scotty .. .. .. .. Scotty!"
One name and myriad voices are blending:
   "Scotty .. .. .. .. Scotty!"
Down the length of a continent people are cheering,
As over far verges the planes are appearing,
And well in the van, through the azure careering,
   Comes Scotty .. .. .. Scotty!


Scotty and Black in the cockpit are bending;
   "Scotty .. .. .. .. Scotty!"
Nodding and waking to talking unending.
   "Scotty .. .. .. .. Scotty!"
Here at the post we are waiting to greet them,
Longing to welcome them, yearning to meet them,
To cheer them, to chair them as heroes, to greet them -
   "Ho, Scotty .. .. .. .. Scotty!"


Scotty, the leader of world aviation.
   "Scotty .. .. .. .. Scotty!"
Scotty of Britain, upholding the nation.
   "Scotty .. .. .. .. Scotty!"
Of Britain, of Aussie, of various places -
Breaker of records, and winner of races,
King of the air, and an ace among aces,
   "Ho, Scotty .. .. .. .. Scotty!"

"Den"
