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
