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's my Eagle eye   Something's 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'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 awhile 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 awhile 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
