Lyrics for As The Crow Flies

Mother crow feels no pain Speaks no words Speckled egg, hatching slow Bible-black baby bird One day, fly over me Placed you in a Flannel coat Months fly by Grow your bones, feathers, skin Bible-black, by and by You will spread your wings One day, fly over me Fly over, fly over me, over me Fly over, fly over me.
