...SAIL AWAY... by Randy Newman ---------------................ *from 'Sail Away' (1972)* *CAPO 3rd FRET* (Original Key: ) Verse 1: In A-merica, you'll get food to eat. 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. Verse 2: 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 a-way with me. Chorus 1: Sail -way, Sail -way. We will cross the mighty ocean, into Charleston Bay. Sail -way, Sail -way, We will cross the mighty ocean, into Charleston Bay. Verse 3: In A-merica, every man is free, To take care of his home and his family. You'll be as happy as a monkey in a monkey tree; You're all gonna be an American. Chorus 2: Sail -way, Sail -way. We will cross the mighty ocean, into Charleston Bay. Sail -way, Sail -way, We will cross the mighty ocean, into Charleston Bay.
