Put a Sail on It

Well I went for a walk down by the
water just to bury my troubles in the sand
Then I wandered up into this seaside
bar and sat down next to this old man
Well I guess he could tell that I wasn't
doing well and he said 'whats troubling you'
I said it might be the rain and I
shouldn't complain but my lucky day is overdue.

I know how you feel son, trust me I've been in your shoes
Well lean in and listen up boy here's what you gotta do

Put a sail on it let your troubles float away
With the break of dawn bring another day
So don't you dwell upon it fade like the setting of the sun
Put a sail on it let your troubles catch the wind
When they're gone they won't come back again
It works every time trust me son it never fails Put a sail on it

He told me of his years,
triumphs and tears, living through a war or two
How you don't always win,
get up and try it again, it's the doing that you've got to do
So we talked about life,
lovers and wives and dreams that almost came true
How the world spins round you're either up or you're down
But mostly it's up to you

He said
I know how you feel son, trust me I've been in your shoes
Well lean in and listen up boy here's what you gotta do

Put a sail on it let your troubles float away
With the break of dawn bring another day
So don't you dwell upon it, fade like the setting of the sun
Put a sail on it let your troubles catch the wind
When they're gone they won't come back again
It works every time trust me son it never fails

Put a sail on it let your troubles float away
With the break of dawn bring another day
So don't you dwell upon it, fade like the setting of the sun
Put a sail on it let your troubles catch the wind
When they're gone they won't come back again
It works every time trust me son it never fails
