The Marshall Tucker Band - Fly Like An Eagle lyrics

rate me

I'm gonna take me a ride on a riverboat<br />

Down to New Orleans<br />

Gotta pocket full o'money and a liquor bottle<br />

Gonna drink away my dreams<br />

<br />

Don't really wanna leave<br />

Sure I can't stay<br />

I'm gonna get on that riverboat<br />

And gamble my life away<br />

<br />

Makes me fly like an eagle<br />

Higher and higher every day<br />

Cause in my mind and in my dreams<br />

I can't get her away<br />

<br />

Gonna sit down at the poker table<br />

Five card stud's my game<br />

Gonna try and forget that crazy woman<br />

Gonna try and forget her name<br />

<br />

I don't know how I'll make it<br />

But I'll forget her some way<br />

This is the time and the only time <br />

She ain't gonna get away<br />

<br />

Chorus<br />

<br />

<br /><br /><br />
