Throw down your hat, kick off your shoes I know you ain't goin' anywhere Run 'round the town singin' your blues I know you ain't goin' anywhere.
 
You've always been a good friend of mine, But you're always sayin' "Farewell" And the only time that you're satisfied Is with your feet in the wishing well.
 
Throw down your gun, you might shoot yourself... Or is that what you're tryin' to do? Put up a fight you believe to be right And someday the sun will shine through.
 
You've always got something to hide Something you just can't tell And the only time that you're satisfied Is with your feet in the wishing well.
 
And I know what you're wishing for Time in a peaceful world Time in a peaceful world Time in a peaceful world Time in a peaceful world
 
You've always been a good friend of mine, But you're always sayin' "Farewell" And the only time that you're satisfied Is with your feet in the wishing well.
