I never thought I could be so happy,
Making our way down the harbor,
Got plenty of food and water,
There's salt in my beard,
There's no place I'd rather be
Sailin' the ocean, havin' a good time,
Yes, the weather is nice in Tahiti,
The skipper checks his bearings
as the coastline disappears
just as long as I have you near
everything seems so clear
Mountin' the bale, bale, all bale, bale,
anchors away, in and out to sea
Well, kayo, kayo, every day -o, kayo, sail in the ocean,
have a good time, baby, just you and me
And we sing la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la -la,
La -la -la -la, la -la -la -la -la
We sing la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la -la
La -la -la -la, la -la -la -la -la
Where old Rick was stormy weather
Prisoner cars to blue water
forever we'll be, we'll be
We're in no hurry to get there
Smiling faces in faraway places
it's heaven on earth that's seen
Out on the bale, bale, oh, bale, bale,
Pack us away, headin' out to sea.
Sailin' the ocean, havin' a good time,
Out on the bay -o, bay -o,
all day -o, day -o, anchors away,
Well, kay -o, kay -o, every day -o, day -o,
sailin' the ocean, havin' a good time,
And we sing la -la -la -la,
La -la -la -la, la -la -la -la -la
We sing la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la -la
La -la -la -la, la -la -la -la -la
Baby, just you and me you
