Sailin' (feat. Henry Kapono)

He was captain of a small ship and he called her the queen Jackson was an old man, the skipper of the sea And he dreams about one day an island he'll find Out lost in the ocean, just passing in time And he'd rather be Sailin', sailin' away, and he'd rather be Sailin', sailin' away, and he'd rather be Sailin' And he's been to places And he knows them quite well But those are just traces of stories to tell And he loves his lady and his whiskey is sweet But sailin's his first love, it keeps his soul free And he'd rather be Sailin', sailin' away, and he'd rather be Sailin', sailin' away, and he'd rather be Sailin' And he goes where the wind blows and he flows with the tide He's just going nowhere, just going for the ride With a cigarette for company and a shot for good times And a sunset to follow, into the night And he'd rather be Sailin', sailin' away, and he'd rather be Sailin', sailin' away, and he'd rather be Sailin' away
