the eagle egg


A farmer found an eagle egg- lying in his field
 He put it in his chicken coop- to see what it might yield
 In time it hatched and grew up- this eagle knew no better
 He thought he was a chicken- a bird of a feather
 One day out in the barnyard- he saw an eagle flying high
 He asked the rooster, what is that - Flying in the sky
 The rooster said; an eagle son a mighty bird of prey
 They soar up in the heavens- for freedom is their way
 The rooster said “forget it boy”- We chickens just don’t fly
 We peck our food out of the dirt- that’s how we all get by
 The chicken eagle felt a pang and said that is what- “I want to be”
 He said good-bye to rooster and left to go and see
 He flew up to the heavens with the eagles soaring free
