Sail Away

(album: Bobby Darin - 1972)

In America, you get food to eat
Won't have to run through the jungle and scuff up your feet
Just sing about Jesus oh yes
Drinking wine all day (Jesus)
It's great to be in America

Ain't no lion, no tiger, ain't no mamba snake
Just a sweet watermelon and a buckwheat cake
Everybody is as happy as a man can be (ohhh)
Climb aboard little woman, sail away with me

Sail away (sail away)
Sail away (sail away)
We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay
Sail away (sail away)
Sail away (sail away)
We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay

In America every man is free
Take care of his happy home and raise a family
You'll be as happy as a monkey in a monkey tree
Y'all gonna be in America

Sail away (sail away)
Sail away (sail away)
We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay
Sail away (sail away)
Sail away (sail away)
We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay

Sail away (sail away)
Sail away (sail away)
We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay
Sail away (sail away)
Come an' sail away (sail away)
We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay

Sail away (sail away)
Sail away (sail away)
We will cross the mighty ocean...
