A' When I wake up in the mornin'
I look at the sky up ahead
And I wonder what it'd be like
To be there, yes to be there
Now I can tell you lots o' stories
I can tell you how it should be
But if you wanna find a good life
A' take it from me, yes take it from me
'Cause you gotta fly away like the blue bird
'Cause you gotta fly away to touch the sun
'Cause you gotta fly away come tomorrow
Can't cha' see? Lord, can't you see?
Now I can't tell you how to live
I hope that you can understand
So when you're down you have to find a way
To be a man, yes to be a man
'Cause you gotta fly away like the blue bird
'Cause you gotta fly away to touch the sun
'Cause you gotta fly away come tomorrow
Can't you see? Lord, can't you see?
Fly Away!
