Fourteen hours a day, fourteen days in two weeks 
A fortnight out to sea,  I'm far from home, alright by me
Off the coast of Japan, then the Ivory Keys 
I put my back into my distancing the distant seas 
I'll sail away, I'll sail away forever and forever 
Hoist the jig, skip the rope, do whatever you do
To get me into the blue
Alright by me

Hey mamasita, ain't it great? 
Ain't it wonderful? 
Hey mamasita, ain't it great 
When you're worlds away? 

Getting further away, putting distance between 
Myself and all the shelves of smarmy, charmy human creeps 
Interruptions are gone, lost in a reverie 
Nothing but wind, waves, and inspiration for my peeps 
I'll sail away, I'll sail away forever and forever 
Hoist the jig, skip the rope, do whatever you do
To get me into the blue
Alright by me

Hey mamasita, ain't it great? 
Ain't it wonderful? 
Hey mamasita, ain't it great 
When you're worlds away? 

Now I am guided by the stars 
And by the red sun 
I go where I want 
For good or ill 
Please winds blow whither you will
