Once mankind was earthbound
But he dreamed of the sky
Man can now choose the direction
That his destiny will lie
Ooooooooh... yeah, yeah
Floating high above the sea
The glory of the fatherland
Displayed for all to see
Three days from the old world
How many miles we've flown
Soaring high above the ocean
I can hear the engines moan
Ooooooooh... yeah, yeah
Floating high above the sea
The glory of the fatherland
Displayed for all to see
High above the new world
Here nothing can go wrong
Man has finally conquered nature
And now sings his victory song
Ooooooooh... yeah, yeah
Floating high above the sea
The glory of the fatherland
Displayed for all to see
