So bind up the French doors
And lace your leather tight
I am taking you to
The eagle's nest tonight
So bind up the French doors
And lace your leather tight
I am taking you to
The eagle's nest tonight
Singing: a mother's work is more than this
A mother's work, it is more than this
A mother's work is more than this
My mother's work is more
I am 21
And I am a golden gate
My hands are married yet
But my brother sings in his sleep
Bring her home to you, Lord
Bring her home
And a silence wind
Cradles a field of grain
Where my father sweats
Knee-deep with his plow
And he's humming:
A daughter's worth is more than this
My daughters worth is more
So bind up the French doors
And lace your leather tight
I am taking you to
The eagle's nest tonight
So bind up the French doors
And lace your leather tight
I am taking you to
The eagle's nest tonight
So bind up the French doors
And lace your leather tight
I am taking you to
The eagle's nest tonight
So bind up the French doors
And lace your leather tight
I am taking you to
The eagle's nest tonight
Singing: a mother's work is more than this
My mother's work is more
