Marty Robbins — Fly Butterfly Fly

When you were only fine you caught a butterfly You held it for a while it made you smile you caught a butterfly Finally it flew away you cried and cried that day To see it fly so high an eagle came and caught the butterfly So don't fly too high in the sky butterfly If you fly very high in the sky you'll find the sun may burn your wings And each song you hear let it go in and out your ear Don't be fooled by the beautiful songs the nightbirds sing Your daddy loves you best much more than all the rest I watched you grow to be a lady then you been my butterfly Learn to fly butterfly before you fly too high An eagle waits for watch what you do be careful butterfly And don't fly too high in the sky butterfly...
