Pete Seeger The Dove
The storm clouds hang on the hill
The thunder rolls through the plain
But there goes that little bird
She winging her way through the rain
The buzzard stirs in the gloom
The jackal stalks thru the shade
But clearing the dim edge of doom
The dove makes her way unafraid
There goes the dove on thru the day
There goes that little bird winging her way
Over the dove, way up on high
There is a rainbow spanning the sky
Ovеr the dove, way up on high
Therе is a rainbow spanning the sky
The rocket lights up the way
And sears her wing with its flame
And night burns as bright as the day
The dove soars along just the same
The guns sound off with a blast
And snarl at the dove on its course
But there she goes faithfully past
And braves the full burst of the force
There she goes on through the day
There goes that little bird
Winging her way
Over the dove, way up on high
There is a rainbow
Spanning the sky
Over the dove, way up on high
There is a rainbow
Spanning the sky
The people stir on the land
They lift up their face to the sky
To see if the dove is at hand
And watch her go breathlessly by
The father stands with his son
The sister and brother are there
They lift up their heads everyone
The sound of their voice fills the air
There she goes on through the day
There goes that little bird
Winging her way
Over the dove, way up on high
There is a rainbow
Spanning the sky
Over the dove, way up on high
There is a rainbow
Spanning the sky
The mother rich with her child
The lover lost in her love
To welcome the feathery, mild
The sure, the invincible dove
And dream of such things to be
The wind at peace with the waves
And the land at peace with the see
And the brave at peace with the brave
There she goes on through the day
There goes that little bird
Winging her way
Over the dove, way up on high
There is a rainbow
Spanning the sky
Over the dove, way up on high
There is a rainbow
Spanning the sky
