Take off your hat; kick off your shoes. 

I know you ain't goin' anywhere. 

Run ‘round 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 wishing well. 

Oh Yeah Wish! 

Throw down your gun – you might shoot yourself – 

Or is that what you're tryin' to do? 

Put up a fight you believe to be right 

And someday the sun will shine through. 

You've always got something to hide; 

Something you just can't tell. 

And the only time that you're satisfied 

Is with your feet in the wishin' well. 

Oh Yeah 

But I know what you're wishin' for: 

Love in a peaceful world. Yeah 

Love in a peaceful world. Oh, yeah 

Love in a peaceful world. 

Mmmmmmmm 

Na na na na na na na-na 

Na na na na na na na 



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 wishing well! 

Oh! Yes! But, uh Ow! 

I wish you well 

Oo-oo-ooh! The wishing well! Ow! 

Everybody has a wish 

Everybody has a dream. Yeah, yeah! 

I wish you well Ow! 

Well, you dream your own time
