    Eric Free wrote this story of the heroes of Flight 93 in the winter of 2001 and recorded it in fall 2002.

    Lyrics
    FLIGHT 93 (Stand and Fight)

    Leavin' Newark for the Bay.
    Flight 93.
    Some on business. Some to play.
    Some for family.

    Big blue sky without a cloud,
    Their 80 eyes could see.
    Buckle in and settle down
    On Flight 93.

    chorus:

    Flight 93!
    Coulda been you or me!
    Would you stand and would you fight?
    On Flight 93.


    Flyin' over Ohio
    Breakfast rolls, coffee.
    Suddenly it turns around,
    Too hard, too sharply.

    Attendant's stabbed, a bomb's alleged,
    The cockpit isn't free!
    Nasty voice says, "Go siddown
    On Flight 93."

    (chorus)


    Cellphones callin' to the ground
    Get the whole story.
    Terorism goin' down,
    Pentagon, NYC.

    "We're over Pennsylvania now!
    "We're headed for D.C.!
    "It's White House or the Capitol
    "For Flight 93!"

    (chorus)

    They prayed and made a huddle
    And they voted to die free.
    Bingham, Burnett, Glick, 'n Lyles,
    And others willingly.

    "Let's roll!" said Big Todd Beamer
    And they smashed in hard and bloody.
    They overwhelmed that cockpit
    And took down Flight 93!

    (chorus)

    They saved America that day.
    They all made history.
    They're namin' highways for 'em
    And there's statues gonna be.

    And that's just what we oughta do,
    But one more thing I see.
    Let's teach our girls and boys
    To live up to Flight 93!

    (chorus)
