"Fly Like An Eagle," written by Steve Miller, was the band's third top 20 hit rising to no. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1976; twenty years later, 1996, English singer Seal had his third and final top 20 hit with his version of the song, which rose to no. 10 on the chart (Whitburn, 2013). In 2008, Miller stated "'Fly Like An Eagle' is always about 12 minutes long (in concert). We have always built our recordings so they have room for spontaneity. My jazz and blues influence is what started us as a jam band originally. 'Fly Like An Eagle' was developed over a period of time as a jam. To me it's much more interesting to see a musician be spontaneous than it is to see someone perform perfectly something they do note for note the same way every night" (songfacts, 2024). Seal's version of the song was featured in the 1996 film "Space Jam" (T. Benitez-Eves, americansongwriter, 2023).
Lyrics:
(Tick tock tick) Doo doo doo-doo
(Tick tock tick) Doo doo doo-doo
(Tick tock tick) Doo doo doo-doo
(Tick tock tick) Doo doo doo-doo
Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future
I want to fly like an eagle
To the sea
Fly like an eagle
Let my spirit carry me
I want to fly like an eagle
'Till I'm free
Oh, Lord, through the revolution
Feed the babies
Who don't have enough to eat
Shoe the children
With no shoes on their feet
House the people
Livin' in the street
Oh, oh, there's a solution
I want to fly like an eagle
To the sea
Fly like an eagle
Let my spirit carry me
I want to fly like an eagle
'Till I'm free
Right through the revolution
Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future
Doo doo n-doo-doo, doo doo n-doo-doo
Doo doo n-doo-doo, doo doo n-doo-doo
Doo doo n-doo-doo, doo doo n-doo-doo
Doo doo n-doo-doo, doo doo n-doo-doo
I want to fly like an eagle
To the sea
Fly like an eagle
Let my spirit carry me
I want to fly like an eagle
'Till I'm free
Right through the revolution
(Tick tock tick) Doo doo doo-doo
(Tick tock tick)
(Tick tock tick) Doo doo doo-doo
(Tick tock tick) Doo doo doo-doo
(Tick tock tick) Doo doo doo-doo
Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future
