Let me tell you 'bout the egret

she is now as we will all be someday

She keeps her balance that's her secret

She spreads her wings

and when you look she's gone away

 

Down down down this road awhile

the rain will come and it will wash our tears away

Down down down the road awhile

we'll turn around

and when we look we will be safe

 

Let me tell you 'bout the egret

she is now as we will all be someday

She keeps her head up that's her secret

She spreads her wings

and when you look she's gone away

Notes on The Egret

Maybe the real reward for virtue is to get to come back as an animal like an egret or heron. Standing on one leg, selecting dainty morsels from the shallow water, gently soaring over beaches and swamps. The Egret was written about 1973.
