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 is my eagle eye.
Somethings gonna go tonight,
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 am 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 awhile to fly
Don't mean that 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 awhile 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.
