West Coast Eagles

An interesting amalgam of two songs - the original penned by guitarist with prog rock outfit Sky and Western Australian producer Kevin Peek for the club's debut in 1987, featuring many references to 'Eagles' and 'flying high'. Ken Walther, the same man responsible for the irrepressible 'Freo, heave ho', supplied the verses later in the song's history.

 

(The song, which is an original, was composed by Kevin Peek)
Hey Eagles, hey Eagles, hey Eagles, hey Eagles
We're flying high, we're flying high
We're flying high, we're flying high
We're the Eagles, the West Coast Eagles
And we're here to show you why
We're the big birds, kings of the big game
We're the Eagles, we're flying high
We're flying high, we're flying high
We're flying high
We're the Eagles, the West Coast Eagles
And we're here to show you why
We're the big birds, kings of the big game
We're the Eagles, we're flying high
We're the Eagles, the West Coast Eagles
And we're here to show you why
We're the big birds, kings of the big game
We're the Eagles, we're flying high
We're the Eagles, we're flying high
