Sail Away

[Verse 1]

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 mamba snake

Just the sweet watermelon and the buckwheat cake

Everybody is as happy as a man can be

Climb aboard, little wog, sail away with me

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

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

[Chorus]

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

We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay

Sail away, sail away

We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay

[Outro]

Won't have to scuff up your feet anymore

Ain't no jungle on this far and distant shore
