Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 sharp as ever and so is my eagle eye
Something's gonna go tonight when the eagle flies
[Verse 2]
Lately I've heard rumors that the eagle may be lame
Just because I've been idle, it 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
[Chorus]
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 crossin', the eagle's in the air
[Chorus]
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 crossin', the eagle's in the air
[Outro]
When you feel the shadow crossin', the eagle's in the air
