If I Had A Ship

Mason Williams

Chorus:
If I had a ship, I'd sail away. (Repeat)
Leave my sorrows where they lay. If I had a ship, I'd sail away.

Stroll down by the sea. Take a stroll down by the bay. Sit and ponder they endless waves. If I had a ship, I'd sail away.

(If I had a ship) If I had a ship (I'd sail away) I'd sail away. (Repeat)
(Leave my sorrows where they lay) Leave my sorrows where they lay.
(If I had a ship) If I had a ship (I'd sail away) I'd sail away.

Stroll down by the sea where the wind songs softly play. Lean my back on a driftwood tree. If I had a ship, I'd sail away.

If I had a ship, I'd sail away (I would sail away). If I had a ship, I'd sail away (I would sail away.)
Leave my sorrows where they lay. If I had a ship, I'd sail away.

Stroll down by the sea. Stand beside her misty spray. 'Though I know 't'ill never be, if I had a ship, I'd sail away.

(Chorus)

(If I had a ship) If I had a ship (I'd sail away) I'd sail away. (Repeat)
(Leave my sorrows where they lay) Leave my sorrows where they lay (If I had a ship) If I had a ship (I'd sail away) I'd sail away.

If I had a ship, I'd sail away. (Repeat)
Leave my sorrows where they lay. If I had a ship, I'd sail away. (I'd sail away.)
