Sail Away

Sail Away - Harry Nilsson
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
Take care of his home and his family
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,
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
