This is the song that introduced me to him in 1973 and is such a simple song but so Randy! His tongue is firmly planted into his cheek. Sail Away In America youll get food to eat Wont have to run through the jungle And scuff up your feet Youll just sing about Jesus and drink wine all day Its great to be an American Aint no lions or tigers Aint no mamba snake Just the sweet watermelon and the buckwheat cake Evrybody is as happy as a man can be Climb aboard, little wog 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 Youll be as happy as a monkey in a monkey tree Youre 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. https://youtube/watch?v=KrJ0ppDKrww
