Everyone tells me to know my place,
But that ain't the way I play!
Why am I daring to show my face?
As I've got something to say!

Move over sun, and give me some sky,
I've got me some wings I'm eager to try!
I may be unknown
But wait till I've flown,
You're gonna hear from me!

Make me some room, you people up there!
On top of the world I'll meet you, I swear!
I'm stakin' my claim,
Remember my name,
You're gonna hear from me!

Fortune smiled
On the road before me,
I'm fortune's child,
Now listen world, you can't ignore me!

I've got a song that longs to be played,
Raise up my play, begin my parade!
Then watch the world over
Start comin' up clover,
That's hoe it's gona be, you'll see,
'Cause you're gonna hear from me!
