Mama, when the moon is done | |
I walk on by the risin’ sun | |
Wishin’ all my dreams for every one | |
It’s been a long time comin’ | |
I mean love | |
Spread your wings and fly | |
American dove | |
Fifteen and he’s seen such bad around | |
The worse thing when they told him | |
God was money he broke down | |
He went wild | |
He is my (the) universal child | |
It’s been a long time comin’ | |
I mean love | |
Spread your wings and fly | |
American dove | |
Mama - you ask – | |
Am I alright? | |
Well sure, but | |
Johnnie he (ain’t) come home from war | |
Don’t they honor life no more? | |
It’s been a long time comin’ | |
I mean love | |
Spread your wings and fly | |
American dove. | |
Father, ooh | |
I hear them | |
They’re talkin’ in the streets thru the grapevine | |
Guess I’ll go down to meet them | |
Father I’ll never sell my soul | |
Not this soul of mine | |
Father it’s been a long time comin’ | |
I mean love | |
Spread your wings and fly | |
American dove | |
Pure as the risin’ sun | |
Tell them the young lord’s come | |
To bring liberty to every one | |
Spread your wings | |
Come on. Spread your wings and fly |
