Eagle lyrics

(Hank Cochran - Red Lane - Mack Vickery)

Lord knows I am peaceful when I`m left alone
I`ve always been an eagle it`s been a while since I have flown
My claws are as sharp as ever so`s my eagle eye
Something`s gonna go to 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 they`ve turned 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 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 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...
