The Eagle

Lord knows I am peaceful
when I'm left alone
I've always been an eagle,
been a while since I have flown

My claws are sharp as ever,
so's my eagle eye
Something's gonna go ground
when the eagle flies

Lately I've heard rumors
that the eagle may be lame
Just because I've been idle,
don't mean that I'm tame

You've jeopardized my freedom,
my natural place to roost
I can fly when I have to,
if they turn the eagle loose

So lay all your doubts aside
when you go to bed tonight
My feathers are all ruffled now,
I'm ready for a fight
Just because I took a while to fly
that don't mean I don't care
When you feel the shadow crossing,
the eagle's in the air

So lay all your doubts aside
when you go to bed tonight
My feathers are all ruffled now,
I'm ready for a fight
Just because I took a while to fly
that don't mean I don't care
When you feel the shadow crossing,
the eagle's in the air
When you feel the shadow crossing,
the eagle's in the air
