Take off your hat kick off your shoes
I know you ain't going anywhere
Run 'round the town singing your blues
I know you ain't going anywhere

You have always been a good friend of mine
But you're always saying farewell
And the only time that you are satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishing well

Throw down your gun you might shoot yourself
Or is that what you are tryin' to do
Put up a fight you believe to be right
And someday the Sun will shine through

You have always got something to hide
Something you just can't tell
And the only time that you are satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishing well

Oh

But I know what you're wishing for (Love in a peaceful world)
Yeah (Love in a peaceful world)
Oh yeah (Love in a peaceful world)

You have always been a good friend of mine
But you're always saying farewell
And the only time that you are satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishing well

Yes

I wish you well (2x)
Everybody has a wish
Everybody has a dream
I wish you well
