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 when 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 when 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 when your feet in the wishin'
Well, oh yes, my god
Everybody has a dream, yeah
Everybody has a wish, well
In the wishin' well
