There's a gonna be smooth sailin' from now on 'Cause my cheatin' baby's gone. Diamond rings, I can't afford So I threw her overboard Smooth sailin' from now on. Well, I've satisfied my hanker and I've got somebody new When I could loose my anchor I saw the last of you There's a gonna be smooth sailin' from now on 'Cause my cheatin' baby's gone Maybe I'll have peace of mind 'Cause I know just what I'll find Smooth sailin' from now on.
--- Instrumental --- I've got me a new baby all my own And I'll never sail my ship alone From her head to her feet She's got all those others beat Smooth sailin' from now on. I'll be the skipper And we'll have a little crew She and I and kisses And Oh yes, Mr. Moon. There's a gonna be smooth sailin' from now on 'Cause my cheatin' baby's gone Maybe I'll have peace of mind 'Cause I know just what I'll find Smooth sailin' from now on...
