Lyrics
Going to Shangri-la
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Go to work each mornin', face another day
Climb up the ladder, do like they say
Naughty boy, don't you be no naughty boy
You've got to earn your pay
Caribbean island, sunny day
Maybe it's fishin' in the bay
Shangri-La, that must be Shangri-La
I'm goin' there someday
I'm goin to Shangri-La, I'm goin' to Shangri-La
Goin' to Shangri-La someday, yeah
Goin' to Shangri-La, I'm goin', goin' to Shangri-La
I'm goin' to Shangri-La
I'm goin' there someday
Ridin' on the wind
Sailin' on the sea
Free, that's me
Picture postcards (picture postcards) plain to see
Of the vision in my dreams (Shangri-La)
I'm goin' there, I'm goin' there, I'm goin' there
(Where are you goin'?)
I'm goin' to Shangri-La
(Where are you goin'?)
I'm goin', goin' to Shangri-La
(Where are you goin'?)
I'm goin' to Shangri-La, I'm goin' to Shangri-La
I'm goin' there
