The Free Bird Leaps On the back of wind http://tinyurl.com/mu76qej

And floats downstream Till the current ends http://tinyurl.com/ler2tq5

And dares to claim the sky and dips his wings In the orange sun rays And dares to claim the sky http://tinyurl.com/lw3gfzj

But a bird that stalks down his narrow cage http://tinyurl.com/k83k6nc

can seldom see through his bars of rage http://tinyurl.com/kua8yqt

his wings are clipped And his feet are tied http://tinyurl.com/l23q26x

So he opens his throat to sing http://tinyurl.com/ls6g6d2

The caged bird sings with fearful trill of the things unknown http://tinyurl.com/m5s9f58

but longed for still and his tune is heard on the distant hill http://tinyurl.com/l7zbyv3

for the caged bird sings of freedom http://tinyurl.com/lwu76j9

The free bird thinks of another breeze an the trade winds soft through the sighing trees http://tinyurl.com/l83ohf4

and the fat worms waiting on a dawn-bright lawn and he names the sky his own. http://tinyurl.com/kzd9cz2

But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream http://tinyurl.com/ktjp6ts

his wings are clipped and his feet are tied http://tinyurl.com/mrjl92o

so he opens his throat to sing http://tinyurl.com/m82vk27

The caged bird sings with a fearful trill of the things unknown

but longed for still and his tune is heard on the distant hill
