Sail on Songtext

von The Commodores

Sail on down the line
Bout a half a mile or so
And a don't really wanna know a
Where you're goin'
Maybe once or twice you see
Time after time I tried-a to
To hold on to what we got
But a now you're goin'
And I don't mind
About the things you're gonna say Lord
I gave all my money, and my time
I know it's a shame
But I'm givin you back your name
Yeah, yeah

Yes I'll be on my way
I won't be back to stay
I guess I'll move along
I'm lookin for a good time
Sail on down the line
Ain't it funny how time can go on-a
Friends say they told me so
But it doesn't matter
It was plain to see that a small town boy like me
Just-a wasn't your cup of tea
It was wishful thinkin'
I gave you my heart and I tried to make you happy
And you gave me nothin' in return
You know, it ain't so hard to say
Would you please just go away
Yeah, yeah

I've thrown away the blue
I'm tired of being used
I want everyone to know
I'm lookin' for a good time
Good time, yeah
Sail on down the line
Ain't it funny how time can go on-a
Friends say they told me so
But it doesn't matter
It was plain to see that a small town boy like me
Just-a wasn't your cup of tea
It was wishful thinkin'
I gave you my heart and I tried to make you happy
And you gave me nothin' in return
You know, it ain't so hard to say
Would you please just go away
Yeah, yeah

Got nothin' else to lose
I'm tired of being used
I want everyone to know
I'm lookin' for a good time
Good time, yeah
Whoa oh
Sail on, honey
Good times never felt so good
Sail on sugar
Good times never felt so good
Sail on
