SAIL AWAY RANDY NEWMAN

In America you get food to eat

Don't have to run thru the jungle and scuff up your feet
G Em7/G A7
You'll just sing about Jesus and drink wine all day
C/D G
It's great to be an American
Aint no lions or tigers, aint no mamba snake
Just the sweet watermelon and the buckwheat cake
You'll be as happy as a monkey in a monkey tree
Climb aboard, little w*g and sail away with me

Everybody is as happy as a man can be
Your all gonna be an American
