You got your wings on mama, and you feel like flyin' high
You’ve got your wings on mama, and you feel like flyin' high
If you sail away today, you will come back bye and bye
Every thing goes up, have to come down sometime
Every thing goes up mama, have to come down sometime
You’ll come sailing back to me, when you can’t get hold of a dime
You can flap your wings, and sail just like a dove
You can flap your wings mama, and sail just like a dove
But you can’t mistreat me, when I find the one I love
Sail on, sail on little girl sail on
Sail on, sail on little girl sail on
No need to sailin' back to me, cause you’ll find your daddy gone
I didn’t ask you to go, and I ain’t gonna beg you to stay
I didn’t ask you to go mama, and I ain’t gonna beg you to stay
You can stay if you want to, if you don’t you can sail away
