Take off your hat, kick off your shoes 
I know you ain't going anywhere 
Run back to twon, singing your blues 
I know you ain't going 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 
Throw down your gun. you might shoot yourself 
Or is that what you're trying to do? 
Put up a fight, you believe to be right 
And some day the sun will shine through 
You've always got something to hide 
Something you just can't tell 
And the only time that you're satisfied 
Is with your feet 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 
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 
Evereybody has a dream 
Well I wish you well 
And I wish you well 
We all have a dream 
In the wishing well 
I wish you well 
In the wishing well 
The wishing well 
In the wishing well
