Fourteen hours a day, fourteen days in two weeks

A fortnight out to sea, I'm far from home, alright by me

Off the coast of Japan, then the Ivory Keys

I put my back into my distancing the distant seas

I'll sail away, I'll sail away forever and forever

Hoist the jig, skip the rope, do whatever you do

To get me into the blue

Alright by me



Hey mamasita, ain't it great?

Ain't it wonderful?

Hey mamasita, ain't it great

When you're worlds away?



Getting further away, putting distance between

Myself and all the shelves of smarmy, charmy human creeps

Interruptions are gone, lost in a reverie

Nothing but wind, waves, and inspiration for my peeps

I'll sail away, I'll sail away forever and forever

Hoist the jig, skip the rope, do whatever you do

To get me into the blue

Alright by me



Hey mamasita, ain't it great?

Ain't it wonderful?

Hey mamasita, ain't it great

When you're worlds away?



Now I am guided by the stars

And by the red sun

I go where I want

For good or ill

Please winds blow whither you will
