Take off your hat, kick off your shoes
You know you ain't goin' anywhere
Spend all your time singin' your blues
You know you ain't goin' anywhere
You've always been a good friend of mine,
But you always say farewell
And the only time that you're satisfied,
Is with your feet in the wishing well
In the wishing well.
Hah
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 one day the sun will shine through
You've always got somethin' to hide
Somethin' you just can't tell
And the only time that you're satisfied,
Is with your feet in the wishing well
In the wishing well.
But I know what you're wishing for.
Love in a peaceful world
Love in a peaceful world
Love in a peaceful world
Hm, hm-m-m-m.
Hah.
You've always been a good friend of mine,
But you always say farewell
And the only time that you're satisfied,
Is with your feet in the wishing well
In the wishing well
In the wishing well
Everybody's got a dream
And they take it to the wishing well
Everybody's got a dream, hah
Wishing well
