Take off your hat, kick off your shoes
I know you ain`t goin` anywhere
Run `round the town singin` your blues
I know you ain`t goin` anywhere.
You`ve always been a good friend of mine,
But you`re always sayin` Farewell
And the only time that you`re satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishing well.
Throw down your gun you might shoot yourself.
Or is that what you`re tryin` to do?
Put up a fight you believe to be right
And someday the sun will shine through.
You`ve always got something to hide
Something you just can`t tell
And the only time that you`re satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishing well.
And I know what you`re wishing for
Love in a peaceful world
Love in a peaceful world
Love in a peaceful world
You`ve always been a good friend of mine,
But you`re always sayin` Farewell
And the only time that you`re satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishing well.
