Sail Away lyrics
In America, you get food to eat
You won't have to run through the jungle and scuff up your feet
You'll just sing about Jesus and drink wine all day
It's great to be an American
Ain't no lions or tigers
Ain't no mama snake
Just a sweet watermelon
And buckwheat cake
Everybody is as happy as a man can be
Climb aboard, little one
Sail away with me
Sail away, sail away
We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay
Sail away, sail away
We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay
In America, every man is free
You'll be happy as a monkey in a monkey tree
You're all gonna be an American
Sail away, sail away
We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay
Sail away, sail away
We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay
You'll get food to eat
Sail away, sail away
Sail away
We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay
Sail away, sail away
We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay
Won't have to scuff up your feet anymore
Ain't no jungle on this far and distant shore
In America, you get food to eat
You won't have to run through the jungle and scuff up your feet
You'll just sing about Jesus and drink wine all day
