Sammy
was low
Just watching
the show
Over and
over again
Knew it
was time
He’d made up
his mind
To leave his dead life behind
His boss said
to him
’Boy you’d
better begin
To get those crazy notions right out of
your head
Sammy who do you think that
you are?
You should’ve been sweeping up the Emerald bar’
Spread your wings and
fly away
Fly away
far away
Spread your little wings and
fly away
Fly away
far away
Pull yourself together
’Cos you know you should do better
That’s because you’re a
free man

He spends his evenings alone in his
hotel room
Keeping his thoughts to himself he’d be
leaving soon
Wishing he was miles and
miles away
Nothing in this world nothing would make
him stay

Since he
was small
Had no luck
at all
Nothing came easy
to him
Now it
was time
He’d made up
his mind
’This could be my last chance’
His boss said to him ’now
listen boy
You’re always dreaming
You’ve got no real ambition you won’t get
very far
Sammy boy don’t you know who
you are?
Why can’t you be happy at the Emerald bar?’

So honey
Spread your wings and
fly away
Fly away
far away
Spread your little wings and
fly away
Fly away
far away
Pull yourself together
’Cos you know you should do better
That’s because you’re a
free man
Come
on honey
FLY
WITH ME!
