I'M AN EAGLE 1974 - FEATHERS IN THE WIND

James Michael Taylor

I’M AN EAGLE

I’m an eagle
I’m an arrow
I’m a falcon
I’m a sparrow

…and I feel the wind crossing my feathers in the morning
Flying high above the fields. Swoop down without a warning

I’m an eagle
I’m an arrow
I’m a falcon
I’m a sparrow

…and I find a thermal and I ride it high
Incredible is normal when you’re in the sky

I build my nest high up on a ridge crest
I stand the test, doing what I do best
I build my nest high up on a ridge crest
I fly east. I fly west
I build my nest high up on a ridge crest
I build my nest high up on a ridge crest

I’m an eagle
I’m an arrow
I’m a falcon
I’m a sparrow

And I tuck my legs up against my body
I don’t need ’em
Creatures looking for direction
I can lead ’em…

I’m an eagle
I’m an arrow
I’m a falcon
I’m a sparrow

My brother, Joe Ray was a seat-of-the-pants pilot.
He liked this song. He had an Oregon license plate: IMNEGL
He died on 1987…in a fiery plane crash.
