William White Sailing lyrics

[Chorus:]
Just a little, just a little while now and I'll be gone
Just a little, just a little while darling, it won't be long
'Cause my eye's out on the harbour and my ship she shall come in
Then we'll go sailing away from here

See my father, and my mother work their whole like for profit of another
Think again, think again
See my sister and my brother fights against poverty 'til we fight against each other
Think again, think again

[Bridge:]
This is not just philosophy
You must be putting on me
We're only running from reality
Well you can count me out on this one

[Chorus:]
You make living, you make living, entrusting your whole life to the pennies
that they're giving

Think again, think again
What a worry, what a trouble! Would'nt it be nice to be happier people?
Think again, think again

[Bridge]

[Chorus] (Piano solo)

[Chorus:]
Just a little, just a little while now and I'll be gone
Just a little, just a little while darling, it won't be long
'Cause my eye's out on the harbour and my ship she shall come in
Then we'll go sailing away from here
Just a little, just a little while now and I'll be gone
Just a little, just a little while darling, it won't be long
'Cause my eye's out on the harbour and my ship she shall come in
Then we'll go sailing away from here
