Mama

When the moon is done

I walk on by the risin' sun

Wishin' all my dreams for everyone

It's been a long time coming

I mean love

Spread your wings and fly

American dove

Fifteen

And he's seen such bad around

Worst thing when they told him

God was money

He broke down

He went wild

He is the universal child

It's been a long time coming

I mean love

Spread your wings and fly

American dove

Mama

You're askin' my old ride

We're sure

But Johnny ain't come home

From war

Don't they honor life no more?

It's been a long time coming

I mean love

Spread your wings and fly

American dove

Father

Ooh I hear the tenants

Talking in the street

Though the grapevine

Guess I'll go down and meet them

Father, I'll never sell my soul

Not this soul of mine

Father, it's been a long time coming

I mean love

Spread your wings and fly

American dove

Pure as the rising sun

Tell them I am long to come

To bring the birdie to everyone

Spread your wings

Come on, spread your wings

And fly
