You know, I’m an eagle, flying around in the mountains.
Meaning of the quote
This quote is expressing that the musician, Link Wray, feels like a powerful and free eagle, soaring high in the mountains. He is comparing himself to the majestic bird, suggesting he has the same sense of independence and limitless possibilities as the eagle flying through the open skies. This metaphor conveys the musician's feeling of being unrestrained and able to explore the world without boundaries, much like the eagle's experience in the vast mountain landscape.
