Jane Monheit - The Eagle & Me Lyrics

Artist: Jane Monheit

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Jazz

  • Songwriters: Harold Arlen, E. Y. Harburg

River, it likes to flow
Eagle, it likes to fly
Eagle, it likes to feel
It's wings against the sky

Possum, it likes to run
Ivy, it likes to climb
Bird in the tree and bumble bee want
Freedom in the autumn and the summertime

Ever since the day
When the world was an onion
Ooh, it's natural
For the spirit to soar and play

Way the Lord wanted it
Free as the sun is free
That's how it's gotta be
Whatever is right for the bumble bee
And river and the eagle is right for me

Ever since the day
When the world was an onion
Ooh, it was natural
For the spirit to soar and play

Way the Lord wanted it free
That's how it's gotta be
Whatever is right for the bumble bee
And river and the eagle is right for me
Yeah

Yeah
Gotta be free
