Sail Away by Joe Cocker

In America you get food to eat
Won't have to run to the jungle and scuff up your feet
You'll just sing about Jesus and drink wine all day
It's great to be in America

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

Sail away, sail away
We will cross the mighty ocean into the Charleston Bay
Sail away, sail away
And we will cross the mighty ocean into the Charleston Bay

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

Sail away, sail away
We will cross the mighty ocean into the Charleston Bay
Sail away, sail away
And we will cross the mighty ocean into the Charleston Bay
