Sail On (feat. Tim McGraw) Lyrics

Sail on, down the line
about half a mile or so
and i don't really wanna know ah
where you're going
maybe once or twice you see
time after time i tried
hold on to what we got
but now you're going
and i don't mind
about the things you're gonna say
lord, i gave all my money and my time
i know it's a shame
but i'm giving you back your name
guess i'll be on my way
i won't be back to stay
i guess i'll move along
i'm looking for a good time
sail on down the line
ain't it funny how the time can go
all my friends say they told me so
but it doesn't matter
it was plain to see
that a small town boy like me
just i wasn't your cup of tea
i was wishful thinking
i gave you my heart
and i tried ot make you happy
and you gave me nothing in return
you know it ain't so hard to say
would you please just go away
i've thrown away the blues
i'm tired of being used
i want everyone to know
i'm looking for a good time
good time
sail on honey
good times never felt so good
sail on honey
good times never felt so good
sail on sugar
good times never felt so good
sail on

Lionel Brockman Richie, Jr. (born June 20, 1949 in Tuskegee, Alabama) is an American R&B singer, songwriter, composer, and occasional actor. He got his start as the front man for the Commodores, a nationally popular Motown band during the 70's. They had several hits such as Easy, Three Times A Lady, and probably the Commodores' most famous hit, Brick House.

Richie quit the band in 1981 for a solo career. He released his self-titled debut in 1982. The album hit No. 3 on the charts and sold over 4 million copies. His follow up album, Can't Slow Down, sold over twice as many copies and won the Grammy for Album of the Year in '84. His third album, '86's Dancing on the Ceiling spawned such hits as Say You, Say Me, Dancing on the Ceiling, and Se La, but would be the end of his commercial success.

His 90's albums such as Back to Front, Louder Than Words, and Time all failed to achieve the previous decade's commercial success. Some of his recent work, such as the album Renaissance, has returned to his older style, hoping to achieve more success. Read more on Last.fm.
