Captured Eagles

The eagle has to fly, on mighty wings he soars;
If captured he will die as a river runs its course.
The eagle is a hunter and he must rule the sky;
The eagle seeks his freedom no matter what the price.

Free our Captured Eagles from the dark and desperate night.
Give a Captured Eagle a fighting chance for life.
We all live in freedom and our eagles pay the cost.  
Now they're Captured Eagles, our men have all been lost.

The eagle in a cage, is too pitiful a sight;
To see that strong a creature appear to lose his might.
It fills me full of rage and makes me want to right,
the wrongs that have been put upon these men who fought the fight.

Free our Captured Eagles from the dark and desperate night.  
Give a Captured Eagle a fighting chance for life.
We all live in freedom and our eagles pay the cost.  
Now they're Captured Eagles, our men have all been lost.

Free our Captured Eagles.
Captured Eagles … Captured Eagles … Captured Eagles...
