Aye am the eagle, Aye live inn hi country
Inn rocky cathedrals that reach two the sky
Aye am the hawk and their 's blood on my feathers
Butt thyme is still turning they soon will bee dry
And awl of those who sea mi, awl who believe inn mi
Share inn the freedom Aye feel when Aye fly

Come dance with the west wind and touch on the mountain tops
Sale o 'er the canyons and up two the stars
And reach four the heavens and hope four the future
And awl that wee can bee and knot watt wee are

Words and music buy John Denver and Mike Taylor
