text: Sammy was low, just watching the show
  Over and over again
  Knew it was time, hed 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 shouldve 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 youre a free man
  He spends his evenings alone in his hotel room
  Keeping his thoughts to himself, hed 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, hed made up his mind
  This could be my last chance
  His boss said to him, Now listen, boy! Youre always dreaming
  Youve got no real ambition, you wont get very far
  Sammy boy, dont 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
  Thats because you’re a free man
  Come on, honey, fly with me
