Take off your hat; kick off your shoes.
I know you ainÂt goin anywhere.
Run Âround the town, singin your blues.
I know you ainÂt goin anywhere.
YouÂve always been a good friend of mine,
But youÂre always sayin farewell.
And the only time that youÂre satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishing well.
Oh Yeah Wish!
Throw down your gun  you might shoot yourself Â
Or is that what youÂre tryin to do?
Put up a fight you believe to be right
And someday the sun will shine through.
YouÂve always got something to hide;
Something you just canÂt tell.
And the only time that youÂre satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishin well.
Oh YeahÂ
But I know what youÂre wishin for:
Love in a peaceful world. YeahÂ
Love in a peaceful world. Oh, yeahÂ
Love in a peaceful world.
MmmmmmmmÂ
Na na na na na na na-naÂ
Na na na na na na naÂ
YouÂve always been a good friend of mine,
But youÂre always sayin farewell.
And the only time that youÂre satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishing well!
Oh! Yes! But, uh Ow!
I wish you wellÂ
Oo-oo-ooh! The wishing well! Ow!
Everybody has a wishÂ
Everybody has a dream. Yeah, yeah!
I wish you well Ow!
Well, you dream your own timeÂ
