Lyrics of the US Bicentennial Song of Tennessee – Fly Eagle, Fly
U.S. Bicentennial Song
Song by James Rogers
Words and lyrics © of the creater
Today I saw an eagle flying
His colors they were red and white and blue
Today he loooked like he was cyring,
For, where are all the friends that he once knew?
Chorus:
And I said, Fly Eagle, Fly!
Go spread your freedom wings across the sky;
Don’t let ‘em bring you down, they’ll chain you to the ground.
You gotta be strong to travel alone in the sky.
So Fly Eagle Fly! So Fly mighty Eagle fly!
Today I heard the eagle calling.
It echoed from the mountains to the sea;
But, again, the sounds he made were falling
Upon the deafened ears of those not free
Chorus
Today I saw an eagle flying
Is he headed for the skies He’s enver known?
Are the freedoms he has left behind him dying?
Will the eagle find another home?
