Take off 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 Love in a peaceful world Love in a peaceful world Love in a peaceful world Love 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.
