Walk my load, to the open road
Get out for good, changin things I should
And if I walk for a while, try to keep my smile
and the open road, will keep me a float
Smooth Sailing to go
On this soothing road
And if you don't know where to go
Then just follow the flow
My soles are worn
and my clothes are torn
Get a ride or two, from strangers like you
No money to spare, but that's why we share
No worries or frets, no room for regrets
Smooth Sailing to go
On this soothing road
And if you don't know where to go
Then just follow the flow
If we keep now in check
Then we won't miss a beat or step
Breathe in and listen to the music
Swing it, feel it, go ahead and lose it
Graceful gracious tunes
Takes to the night and the night takes you
Floating softly moving freely
Creating moments of delightful memories
If we keep now in check
Then we won't miss a beat or step
Breathe in and listen to the music
Swing it, feel it, go ahead and lose it
Smooth Sailing to go
On this soothing road
And if you don't know where to go
Then just follow the flow
