| Many's the time I've been mistaken | |
| And many times confused | |
| Yes, and I've often felt forsaken | |
| And certainly misused | |
| Oh, but I'm all right, I'm all right | |
| I'm just weary to my bones | |
| Still, you don't expect to be | |
| Bright and bon vivant | |
| So far away from home, | |
| So far away from home | |
| And I don't know a soul who's not been battered | |
| I don't have a friend who feels at ease | |
| I don't know a dream that's not been shattered | |
| or driven to its knees | |
| but it's all right, it's all right | |
| We lived so well so long | |
| Still, when I think of the road we're traveling on | |
| I wonder what's gone wrong | |
| I can't help it, I wonder what's gone wrong | |
| And I dreamed I was dying | |
| I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly | |
| And looking back down at me | |
| Smiled reassuringly | |
| And I dreamed I was flying | |
| And high up above my eyes could clearly see | |
| The Statue of Liberty | |
| Sailing away to sea | |
| And I dreamed I was flying | |
| We come on the ship they call the Mayflower | |
| We come on the ship that sailed the moon | |
| We come in the age's most uncertain hours | |
| and sing an American tune | |
| And It's alright, it's all right | |
| You can't be forever blessed | |
| Still, tomorrow's going to be another working day | |
| And I'm trying to get some rest | |
| That's all I'm trying to get some rest |
