 Sammy was low - Just  watching the show
 Over and  over a-  gain
 Knew it was time - He'd  made up his mind
 To  leave his dead  life be-  hind
 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
+5  thema*
  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 awa-  y
 Nothing in this world, nothing would  make him sta-  y
 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 am-  bition, 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
