I can?t imagine, how the world would be
Not to see the grey squirrel, climbing in an Oak tree
To walk through a cornfield and not see the wild duck flyin?
I believe before the world ever got that bad, I?d be on my knees a cryin?
Won?t you fly oh eagle fly, you?d before run little cottontail run
I hope you both live long enough to see the setting Sun
A lion ain?t got no jungle, old black bear got no cave
And that poor old alligator has just about seen his better days
Won?t you fly oh eagle fly, you?d before run little cottontail run
I hope you both live long enough to see the setting Sun
On a cold winter morning I can look up in the sky and I can see the wild geese fly
And on a warm spring day I can look up in the air and I can see a yellow butterfly
How long has it been since you heard the tiny flutter of the little wings of a humming bird
And I once saw the picture of a buffalo, a thousand hand a herd
Won?t you fly oh eagle fly, you?d before run little cottontail run
I hope you both live long enough to see the setting Sun
Fly Mr. eagle fly, you?d better run little cottontail run
