I’m a Raven (Shake Children)

Lyrics

[Chorus] Shake, children, shake Yeah, ring your bell Go down willing There's thunder up ahead Shake, children, shake Shake your tambourine Dance for me now Like you sold your dream [Hook] If I had wings like the dove, like the dove Maybe I could see it as a peaceful world But hey, I'm afraid I'm a raven [Chorus] Shake, baby, shake My little roving jewel Rally come 'round My little sunshine girl Shake, baby, shake That black country down I beg your mercy, sister For the fool that wears the crown [Hook] If I had wings like the dove, like the dove Maybe I could see it as a peaceful world But hey, I'm afraid I'm a raven [Verse 1] Yonder comes day with the full moon in her eye I liked the old ways, those mystical times For blue though they seemed, I sang so easy Lord, how I loved the outlaw life [Chorus] Shake, children, shake Shake your soul Please break the chain I could not this time around
