I feel like a beat-up back road, all full of potholes, man, I'm on a hell of a ride Doing my best and I can't get arrested, I can't get time I'm on my side, down on my luck and I'm down on my knees And I'm down on my last dirty dime, red sky morning It keeps on pouring just like the tears in my eyes Looking for smooth sailing, feeling the breeze on my back Get my blues spinning, my weather and my wheels on track Come hell or high water, the sun's gonna shine Might not need them tomorrow, but I know I'm gonna find Smooth sailing, watch me sail away The flowers are dying, my woman is crying herself to sleep every night And people try to be nice and they give me advice But they ain't got a dog in this fight What's left of my faith is a drop in the tank Here lately I've been running on fumes But there's a new sun rising on the horizon Lord, I hope I get there soon I'm looking for smooth sailing, feeling the breeze on my back Get my blues spinning, my weather and my wheels on track Come hell or high water, the sun's gonna shine Might not need them tomorrow, but I know I'm gonna find Smooth sailing, I'm looking for smooth sailing I could use it, I could use it I could use a little tight turn I could use it before I lose it I could use a little, I could use a little Smooth sailing I'm looking for smooth sailing, feeling the breeze on my back Get my blues spinning, my weather and my wheels on track Come hell or high water, the sun's gonna shine Might not need them tomorrow, but I know I'm gonna find Smooth sailing, I'm looking for smooth sailing Watch me sail away Watch me sail away Watch me sail away Watch me sail away
