The Band - Where Do We Go from Here? Lyrics

Did you hear about the eagle of distinction?
One that came on every Friday afternoon
Well, it seems that eagle
Has near flown into extinction

Descending to the sand
His biggest enemy bein' man
Have you ever seen
The freedom on the wing?

Where do we go from here?
And I asked my woman
"Where do we go from here?
Oh woman, my woman"
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
And she said, "Nowhere"

Did you hear about the railroad going under?
How it seems its days are numbered on the board
And, I feel sad about the railroad
And it's no wonder

It would run right by my door
I can't hear it anymore
How can you get to sleep
When the whistle don't moan?

Where do we go from here?
Is there no way of knowing?
Where do we go from here?
Oh, I need to be shown
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
And they said, "Somewhere"

Have you heard about the buffalo on the plain?
And how at one time
They'd stampede a thousand strong
Now that buffalo's at the zoo standin' in the rain

Just one more victim of fate
Like California state
You sure do miss the silence
When it's gone

Where do we go from here?
I hear from no one
Where do we go from here?
Could you tell me, someone?
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
And I'd go anywhere

La, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
