The Eagle

[Verse 1] Lord knows i am peaceful when i'm left alone I've always been an eagle,been awhile since i have flown My claws are sharp as ever,so is my eagle eye Somethings gonna go tonight,when the eagle flies [Verse 2] 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 if i have to,if they turn the eagle loose [Chorus] So lay all your doubts aside,when you go to bed tonight My feathers have been ruffled and i'm ready for a fight Just because i took awhile to fly don't mean that i don't care When you feel the shadow crossing,the eagle's in the air [Chorus] When you feel the shadow crossing,the eagle's in the air --- The Eagle - Waylon Jennings
