Verse 1
I remember he was a young man,
and the things he talked about.
Everyone knew he loved his music,
hoped someday he'd draw a crowd.
He could take a simple sad song,
make the tears come rollin down....
Chorus
And he lived like a lonely ole eagle,
flyin high through the sky.
Yeah, he lived like a lonely ole eagle,
on his flight.
Verse 2
Then something happened in his life,
and they say he cant go home,
that he is gonna leave us.
Now his memory still lives on.
I remember the day they laid him down,
and I said my last goodbye....
Chorus
And he lived like a lonely ole eagle,
flyin high through the sky.
Yeah, he lived like a lonely ole eagle,
on his flight.
Verse 3
Though his memory is still with me
everytime I sing a song,
I wish that I could sing it
like he did when he was strong....
Chorus
And he lived like a lonely ole eagle,
flyin high through the sky.
Yeah, he lived like a lonely ole eagle,
on his flight.
And he lived like a lonely ole eagle,
flyin high through the sky.
Yeah, he lived like a lonely ole eagle,
on his flight.
