Sail on, sister
Whoa, sail on
Sail on, my sister
Keep sailing on
'Cause your papa loves you
And your mama loves you
And your little bitty baby sister loves
Ah, she loves you
Keep sailing on
Keep sailing on
Sail on, my sister
Ah, sister, keep sailing on
Yeah, sail on my little sister
Keep sailing on
'Cause your papa loves you
And your mama loves you
And little bitty baby brother
Oh Lord, he loves you
Keep sailing on
That's enough to keep you sailing on
Look up in the sky
Can't you see the Sun shine?
Shines for you and I
Oh, and it sure beats crying
Very hard road
And you may have a very, very, very, very heavy load
But you oughta keep sailing
Sailing on
Yeah, keep sailing on
Yeah, sailing on
Because your papa loves you
And your mama loves you
And little bitty baby sister loves
Oh, she loves you
Keep sailing on
Sailing on
Your papa loves you
Mama loves you
Little bitty little bitty baby sister
Oh, loves you
Keep sailing on
Keep sailing on
Sailing on
