Sam

Sam is a friend is, is a friend of mine
He knows just how to laugh and shout
Get up early at the break of day
And you might just catch him out.
He's got a smile and a plastic gun
And a good old cowboy hat
Get up early and you'll see him ride
Shootin' up the alley round the back.
All he wants is a chocolate bar
The lavatory now and again
A friend or two and a family who
Will love him when he comes in.
He don't worry and he don't care
About the same things I do
He just thinks about Captain Kirk
And an' he hollers out scoobedoo.
Well I wish I was not quite so old
With a house and a car and a headache
Get up early at the crack of dawn
And you might just see me break.
All I want is a rest from all the fever and the fret
Give me a ride on Sam's old horse
And I wish I was where he was at
And I wish I was where he was at.
Sam is a friend is, is a friend of mine
He knows just how to laugh and shout
Get up early at the break of day
And you might just, see him.
Sam is a friend, is a friend of mine
