[00:00:48] When the moon is done

[00:00:56] I walk on by the risin' sun

[00:01:05] Wishin' all my dreams for every one

[00:01:12] It's been a long time comin' I mean love

[00:01:22] Spread your wings and fly American dove

[00:01:37] Fifteen and he's seen such bad around

[00:01:47] The worse thing when they told him

[00:01:50] God was money he broke down

[00:01:55] He went wild

[00:01:57] He is my universal child

[00:02:03] It's been a long time comin' I mean love

[00:02:13] Spread your wings and fly American dove

[00:02:26] Mama you ask am I alright

[00:02:30] Well sure but Johnnie he come home from war

[00:02:44] Don't they honor life no more

[00:02:50] It's been a long time comin' I mean love

[00:03:00] Spread your wings and fly American dove

[00:03:13] Father ooh I hear them

[00:03:17] They're talkin' in the streets through the grapevine

[00:03:22] Guess I'll go down to meet them

[00:03:29] Father I'll never sell my soul

[00:03:34] Not this soul of mine

[00:03:38] Father it's been a long time comin' I mean love

[00:03:49] Spread your wings and fly American dove

[00:04:03] Pure as the risin' sun

[00:04:11] Tell them the young lord's come

[00:04:18] To bring liberty to every one

[00:04:26] Spread your wings

[00:04:29] Come on spread your wings and fly
