IF I HAD WINGS, I'D FLY A WAY, IF I HAD WINGS, I'D FLY A WAY,IF I HAD WINGS, I'D FLY A WAY, FROM DOWN HERE. I'D PICK UP MY CROSS, PUT IT OVER MY SHOULDER, I'D SPREAD MY WING AND FLY AWAY TO GLORY. IF I HAD WINGS, WINGS, WINGS, SHOWL' WOULDN'T BE DOWN HERE.

VERSE 1
MY PROBLEMS
I WOULDN'T HAVE UM
OH MY BURDENS,
I WOULD NOT BARE THEM
PAIN, SUFFERING, HEARTACHE,
I WOULDN'T HAVE (YEAHHHHH)
I'D PICK MY CROSS
PUT IT OVER MY SHOULDER
I'D SPRED MY WINGS AND FLY AWAY TO GLORY
IF I HAD WINGS, WINGS , WING, I SHOWL WOULDN'T BE DOWN HERE

VERSE 2
SOME PEOPLE WANT
A CADILLAC
SOME PEOPLE WANT
DIAMOND RINGS
JEWERLY
ALL THOSE OTHER
FANCY THINGS (YEAHHHHH)
BUT A CADILLAC CAN'T DRIVE YOU
HOME TO GLORY
AND DIAMONDS CAN'T MAKE YOU
SPARKLE IN HIS EYE
IF I HAD WINGS, WINGS, WINGS
I SHOWL WOULDN'T BE DOWN HERE
WINGS, WINGS, IF I HAD MY WINGS, TALKING BOUT MY WINGS
FROM DOWN HERE, (YEAHHHHH)
I'D TAKE UP MY CROSS, AND PUT IT OVER MY SHOULDER
I'D SPREAD MY WINGS AND FLY AWAY TO GLORY
IF I HAD WINGS, WINGS, WINGS, I SHOWLLLLL WOULDN'T BE ROUND HERE.

Some of the words in the song:

If I had wings, I'd fly away, If I had wings, I'd fly away from down here. I'd pick up my cross, put it over my shoulder, I'd spread my wings and fly away to glory. If I had wings, wings, wings, sure wouldn't be down here.

Verse I
My problems, I wouldn't have them, Oh my burdens, I would not bare them pain, suffering, heartache, I wouldn't have them, I'd pick up my cross, put it over my shoulder, Id spred my wings and fly away to glory.
