Lyrics

0:15Sail on' down the line
0:19About half a mile or so
0:21And I don't really wanna know ah
0:25Where you're going
0:29Maybe once or twice you see
0:32Time after time I tried
0:35Hold on to what we got
0:37But now you're going
0:42And I don't mind
0:47About the things you're gonna say
0:49Lord' I gave all my money and my time
0:58I know it's a shame
1:00But I'm giving you back your name
1:09Guess I'll be on my way
1:12I won't be back to stay
1:15I guess I'll move along
1:18I'm looking for a good time
1:38Sail on down the line
1:41Ain't it funny how the time can go
1:44All my friends say they told me so
1:48But it doesn't matter
1:51It was plain to see
1:53That a small town boy like me
1:56Just I wasn't your cup of tea
2:00I was wishful thinking
2:03I gave you my heart
2:10And I tried to make you happy
2:14And you gave me nothing in return
2:19You know it ain't so hard to say
2:23Would you please just go away
2:31I've thrown away the blues
2:34I'm tired of being used
2:37I want everyone to know
2:40I'm looking for a good time
2:44Good time
2:54Sail on honey
3:02Good times never felt so good
3:07Sail on honey
3:14Good times never felt so good
3:20Sail on sugar
3:27Good times never felt so good
3:46Sail on
Sail on' down the line
About half a mile or so
And I don't really wanna know ah
Where you're going
Maybe once or twice you see
Time after time I tried
Hold on to what we got
But now you're going
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 giving you back your name
Guess I'll be on my way
I won't be back to stay
I guess I'll move along
I'm looking for a good time
Sail on down the line
Ain't it funny how the time can go
All my friends say they told me so
But it doesn't matter
It was plain to see
That a small town boy like me
Just I wasn't your cup of tea
I was wishful thinking
I gave you my heart
And I tried to make you happy
And you gave me nothing in return
You know it ain't so hard to say
Would you please just go away
I've thrown away the blues
I'm tired of being used
I want everyone to know
I'm looking for a good time
Good time
Sail on honey
Good times never felt so good
Sail on honey
Good times never felt so good
Sail on sugar
Good times never felt so good
Sail on
