SAXON LYRICS
"Sailing to America" (1984 Single)
1. Sailing to America 2. A Little bit of What You Fancy
1. Sailing to America
Excitement in the air
There's a journey to prepare
They check the food and water's all on board
They're waiting for the tide
The sails are open wide
They're sailing to a better place to dwell
They're sailing to America
Fly the banners high
They're sailing to America
Set the rigging high
The quayside's full of friends
A farewell in their hands
No-one knows if they'll reach the shore
As Plymouth slips away
They'll not be back again
They're sailing off towards the promised land
They're sailing to America
Fly the banners high
They're sailing to America
Set the rigging high
They're sailing to America
Fly the banners high
The Mayflower's on her way
Set sail for many days
The lookout searching for the distant shore
Anchored in the surf
Their journey's at an end
The pilgrims set their feet on virgin land
They're sailing to America
Fly the banners high
They're sailing to America
Set the rigging high
2. A Little bit of What You Fancy
When I hit the ground, I was on the run
I was born the seventh son (the seventh son)
I came up fast, just wanting more
Always running from the law (from the law)
My father said, now slow down son
Life for you has just began (that's what he said)
A little bit of what you fancy always does you good
A little bit of what you fancy always does you good
Don't stop me now, I'm running wild
I've always been a restless child (a restless child)
I was born to rock 'n' roll
Mmm, it's in my soul (it's in my soul)
I've got my Ford, she's long and black
Who needs a fucking Cadillac (who needs it)
A little bit of what you fancy always does you good
A little bit of what you fancy always does you good
I sleep all day and I'm up all night
I don't get paid, but that's alright (I said that's alright)
Don't put me down, I've had enough
I'll stand and fight (I said I'll stand and fight)
When I hit the ground I was on the run
I was born the seventh son
A little bit of what you fancy always does you good
A little bit of what you fancy always does you good
A little bit of what you fancy always does you good
A little bit of what you fancy always does you good
