D                G       D 
I can’t imagine, how the world would be 
G                                            D 
Not to see the grey squirrel, climbing in an Oak tree 
G                                                     D 
To walk through a cornfield and not see the wild duck flyin’ 
C                               G                                  D 
I believe before the world ever got that bad, I’d be on my knees a cryin’ 

                 G     D                 C          G          D 
Won’t you fly oh eagle fly, you’d before run little cottontail run 
                                    C       G       D 
I hope you both live long enough to see the setting Sun

A lion ain’t got no jungle, old black bear got no cave 
                            G                       D 
And that poor old alligator has just about seen his better days  

                 G     D                 C          G          D 
Won’t you fly oh eagle fly, you’d before run little cottontail run

On a cold winter morning I can look up in the sky and I can see the wild geese fly 
         C                                            G                  D 
And on a warm spring day I can look up in the air and I can see a yellow butterfly 
G                                                                              D      
How long has it been since you heard the tiny flutter of the little wings of a humming bird 
C                               G                   D 
And I once saw the picture of a buffalo, a thousand hand a herd 

                 G     D                 C          G          D 
Won’t you fly oh eagle fly, you’d before run little cottontail run 
                                    C       G       D 
I hope you both live long enough to see the setting Sun 
        G     D                 C          G          D 
Fly Mr. eagle fly, you’d better run little cottontail run
