The Commodores › Lyrics › Sail On

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
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

Whoa oh, 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
