He can't find a job,Lord he's found a gun

Even though he knows they'll come with guns a blazing

D A D

And already he can feel that great relief

D A D

Fly like eagles out among the stars

At his home a bottle's thrown in anger

And his father cries we'll never live this down

Oh how many travelers get weary

Bearing both their burdens and their scars

Fly like eagles out among the stars
