Sail On Sailor Songtext
von Ray Kennedy

I am a singer
A gospel singer
I sing for people
I sing for pleasure
I′m only a dreamer
Who came from nowhere
Sail on, sail on sailor

Over the city
I see the rooftops
To soothe my poor soul
I thought a whole lot
I'm often frightened
I′m unenlightened
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor

Just like my Mama said
Ray there's a way
But you gotta get yourself
Out of that Ghetto today


You might stumble
You could fumble
When you're down son
Don′t feel under

Damn the thunder
And the lightnin′
Dawn is frightenin'
When you′re coked out

Heartbreak city
Ain't so pretty
When you′re down
And nitty-gritty
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor

Damn the thunder
And the lightnin'
Dawn is frightenin′
When you're coked out


Heartbreak city
Ain't so pretty
When you′re down
And nitty-gritty
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor.
