Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Stranded Lyrics
Stranded in Iowa
Stranded in Iowa
Better get the Breakdown squad out
Get me rolling on
'Cause I can't keep my thoughts out of sight
Get me rolling on
'Cause I need to feel the stars sleep by at night
I'm stranded all night, stranded all right
Stranded in Iowa
Stranded in Iowa
Better get the Breakdown squad out
Get me rolling on
'Cause I can't keep my thoughts out of sight
Better get the Breakdown squad out
'Cause I need to feel the stars sleep by at night
I'm stranded all night, stranded all right
Mayday, this is Echo Hotel
Mayday, this is Echo Hotel
Mayday, this is Echo Hotel
Hotel Echo, this is Mike November
I can hear your call
Mayday, this is Echo Hotel
Mayday, this is Echo Hotel
Hotel Echo, this is Charlie Delta
I can feel the fear
Mayday, this is Echo Hotel
[repeat to fade]
Stranded in Iowa
Stranded in Iowa
Better get the Breakdown squad out
Get me rolling on
'Cause I can't keep my thoughts out of sight
Better get the Breakdown squad out
Get me rolling on
'Cause I need to feel the stars sleep by at night
Better get the Breakdown squad out
Get me rolling on
'Cause I can't keep my thoughts out of sight
Better get the Breakdown squad out
Get me rolling on
'Cause I need to feel the stars sleep by at night
I'm stranded all night, stranded all right
Mayday, this is Echo Hotel
[repeat to fade]

. . . - - - . . . Mayday, this is Echo Hotel . . . - - - . . . so awesome!
When I flew SD3-60s and SD3-30s with MVA in the Quad Cities in '84 (later absorbed by Air Wisconsin), a fellow pilot knew the story behind this song: a chartered jet used by Manfred Mann's band had a system failure and landed in Iowa, being Stranded while awaiting a spare part to be sent to the airplane.
My husband and I have been listening/singing this song since it came out in the very early 1980’s. I even have a tumblr.com account named “stranded in Iowa”! One of our favorites as we are from Iowa.
And, we are from the Quad Cities! Yay.

So 1980s the end of the world. Those that fought the Cold War know
every generation has its theories of the end of the world
howdy namesake. Indeed, been there, done that. Cf. Jethro Tull : Under Wraps (album).
