Wild Turkay
I soared up above the hills
Squawking Scripture what a thrill
Every demon could see me coming - I swoop down - they start running
Flying low my wings got clipped
Hit the ground like a hypocrite
I was blinded to the Son
Backslidin' had just begun
Why did my flight get grounded?
To Him I'd plead
I'd had a home on His mountain
Now I'm peckin' up chicken feed!
Thought I was a Big Bad Eagle ya'll
Then I became a Wild Turkey, that's all
A Big Regal Eagle bro
Now ackin' like a Wild Turkey fo' sho'
Years past and my life was strange
Grounded life had rearranged
Claws got dull and spirit weak
Pecking dirt had wrecked my beak
Still saved but undercover
Grounded like my brother cluckers
'Stead of hearin' wisdom words
Gobble gobble gobble was all I heard!
I knew I could fly a little
If I would flap my wings
I guess the world had my approval
Maybe turkeyhood was meant for me!
I had been a Big Bad Eagle ya'll
Then I became a Wild Turkey, that's all
A Big Legal Eagle bro
Now ackin' like a Wild Turkey fo' sho'
Gobble Gobble Gobble!
Gobble Gobble Gobble! Gobble Gobble Gobble!
I had tried to do His will
But there ain't nothing called a Holy Pill
Pop one down saying 3:16
Like spiritual amphetamine
Super Christian - ain't no thang
Stray too far from Jesus' name
Then you'll find your wings won't flap
Caught up in Satan's turkey trap
Scratchin' in the dirt like a misfit
I prayed to Him
To send the wind of His Spirit
To launch me upwards again!
Thought I was Big Bad Eagle ya'll
But I'm just Wild Turkey, that's all
Thought I was Big Bad Eagle ya'll
But I'm just a Wild Turkey, that's all
A Big Bad Eagle ya'll
Ackin' like a Wild Turkey, that's all
Born again to be a Big Bad Eagle ya'll
Don't wanna be a Wild Turkey, no mo
Man, I need to go back to basic eagle training!
Get back into the Word and fellowship!
I need to pray!
Study the Word
Stop acting like I haven't heard
I need to get my cluck together!
I need to walk in humility
I need to love everybody, like Jesus' said!
I'm no good - I never was good
And by myself, I'm never gonna be good
Only God is good!
I don't wanna be a-a-a
A Wild Turkey
A Wild Turkey
I wanna be a Big Bad Eagle, y'all
Listening to His call
Squawking Scripture what a thrill
Every demon could see me coming - I swoop down - they start running
Flying low my wings got clipped
Hit the ground like a hypocrite
I was blinded to the Son
Backslidin' had just begun
Why did my flight get grounded?
To Him I'd plead
I'd had a home on His mountain
Now I'm peckin' up chicken feed!
Thought I was a Big Bad Eagle ya'll
Then I became a Wild Turkey, that's all
A Big Regal Eagle bro
Now ackin' like a Wild Turkey fo' sho'
