[Intro]
[Verse]
Working coast to coast
Sleeping on a train
Caught between the settled life
And on the road again
People often ask me
Where it is Iâm from
Find it hard to tell them
So I say it in a song
[Chorus]
Eagle in the mountain
Floating on the breeze
Shark out in the ocean
Heâs happy in the deep
Me, Iâve got my own place
Itâs good enough for me
You could find me anywhere
Between the mountains and the sea
[Verse]
I ve been a lot of places
Done a lot of things
Some of them were so good
Iâd do those things again
The town that I was born in
It knows me all too well
I hope theyâll take me back there
When the keeper rings the bell
[Chorus]
Ooh, but that eagle in the mountain
Floating on the breeze
Shark out in the ocean
Heâs happy in the deep
Me, Iâve got my own place
And itâs good enough for me
You could find me anywhere
Between the mountains and the sea
[Instrumental]
[Verse]
Sometimes I stop and wonder
How it came to this
This life of lonely travelling
So far from civil bliss
Ooh, some people on the journey
Oh, some I ve loved so deep
Others took advantage
Oh, and some had no idea
[Chorus]
Oh, but that eagle in the mountains
Floating on the breeze
Shark out in the ocean
Heâs happy in the deep
Me, Iâve got my own place
Itâs good enough for me
You could find me anywhere
Between the mountains and the sea
[Chorus]
Eagle in the mountains
Rainbow in the sky
Shark out in the ocean
Heâs following the tide
Spirit of this country
I hear it speak to me
When the wind is calling
Between the mountains and the sea
When the wind is blowing
Between the mountains and the sea
[Outro]
