Old School Ska

I'm looking for the lyrics of " WINGS OF A DOVE" , it goes a little some thing like this : "If a had the wings of a dove (3 times) I would fly, fly away....." Bob Marley & The Wailers sung this song way, way, way back when they were a Ska group....but I think this is a cover they did, I hear they didn't wrote it.

Francisco Merino.

I don't know who did the original then, but i hope, the lyrics are still the same

Bob Marley - Wings Of A Dove

If I had the wings of a dove,
If I had the wings of a dove,
Well, I would fly, fly away, fly away
And be at rest.

If I had the wings of a dove,
If I had the wings of a dove,
Well, I would fly, fly away, fly away
And be at rest.

Oh, since I have no wings, since I have no wings, since I have no wings,
I'm gonna sing, sing, sing,
Since I have no wings, since I have no wings, since I have no wings,
I'm gonna sing, sing, sing,

If I had the wings of a dove,
If I had the wings of a dove,
I would fly, fly away, fly away
And be at rest.

/instrumental break/

Since I have no wings, since I have no wings, since I have no wings,
I'm gonna sing, sing, sing,
Since I have no wings, since I have no wings, since I have no wings,
I'm gonna sing, sing, sing, sing.

If I had the wings of a dove - imagine me,
If I had the wings of a dove,
Well, I would fly, fly away, fly away
And I would be at rest.

When I was in the Bahamas in 1965 I was invited to a club by KING ERIC. did not know at the time that he had a band. A wonderful evening and I fell in love with this song. I was young and have never forgotten how courteous he was. The people that I left at another party were concerned. I went "over the hill". I would love to hear it again. " If I had the wings of a dove, oh happy day. IF I had the wings of a dove. I would fly, fly away. Fly ayy yy fly away a to my ----. If I had those wings, if I had those wings, if I had those wings oh I could flyyy. ...." Great time and a great song. Where is a recording?
