Take off your hat, kick off your shoes
   You know you ain't going anywhere
   You spend all your time singing your blues
   You know you ain't going anywhere
  
   You've always been a good friend of mine
   Your heart it bids farewell
   The only time 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 trying to do?
   Put up the fight you believe to be right
   And one day the sun will shine through
  
   You've always got something to hide
   Something you just can't tell
   The only time you're satisfied
   Is with your feet in the wishing well, yeah
  
   You know what you're wishing for
   Love in a peaceful world
   Love in a peaceful world
   Love in a peaceful world, yeah
  
   You've always been a good friend of mine
   Your heart it bids farewell
   The only time you're satisfied
   Is with your feet in the wishing well, yeah
  
   No, everybody has a dream, yeah
   Oh no, no, no, oooh
   I wish you well, yeah
   I know, know
   All you're looking for is love
