SPREAD YOUR WINGS

Back

Sammy was low, just watching the show
Over and over again
Knew it was time, he'd make 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 you 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 cause 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 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 cause you know you should do better
That's because you're a free man
