Take off your hat and kick off your shoes
I know you ain't goin' anywhere
Run around the town singin' your blues
I know you ain't goin' anywhere
You've always been a good friend of mine
But you're always sayin' farewell
And the only time that you're satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishin' well
Oh, yeah

Throw down your gun, you might shoot yourself
Or is that what your tryin' to do
Put up a fight you believe to be right
And someday the Sun will shine through
You've always got somethin' to hide
Somethin' you just can't tell
And the only time that you're satisfied
Is whith your feet in the wishin' well

But I know what you're wishin' for
(Life in a peaceful world)
Oh, yeah
(Life in a peaceful world)
Oh, yeah
(Life in a peaceful world)

You've always been a good friend of mine
But you're always sayin' farewell
And the only time that you're satisfied
Is whith your feet in the wishin'
Well, oh yes, my God

Everybody has a dream, yeah
Everybody has a wish, well
In the wishin' well
