Fly Eagle Fly

Toy Caldwell

[Verse 1]
I can't imagine how the world would be
Not to see the gray squirrel climbing in an oak tree
To walk through a corn field and not see the wild duck flyin'
I believe before the world ever got that bad
I'd be on my knees a-cryin'

[Chorus]
Won't you fly, oh eagle fly
You better run, little cottontail, run
I hope you both live long enough to see the setting sun

[Verse 2]
The lion ain't got no jungle
Old black bear got no cave
And that poor old alligator
He just 'bout seen his better days

[Chorus]
Won't you fly, oh eagle fly
You better run, little cottontail, run
I hope you both live long enough to see the setting sun

[Bridge]
On a cold winter morning I could look up in the sky
And I could see the wild geese fly
And on a warm spring day I could look up in the air
And I could see the yellow butterfly
How long has it been since you heard the tiny flutter
Of the little wing of a hummingbird
And I once saw the picture of a buffalo
A thousand in the herd

[Chorus]
Won't you fly, oh eagle fly
You better run, little cottontail, run
I hope you both live long enough to see the setting sun

[Outro]
Fly, mister eagle, fly
You better run little cottontail, run
