Sail Away — Linda Ronstadt

written by Randy Newman

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

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 So climb aboard little wog and sail away with me

Sail away Sail away We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay Sail away Sail away We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay

In America 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

Sail away Sail away We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay Sail away Sail away We will cross the mighty ocean into Charleston Bay
