Many's the time I've been mistaken And many times confused Yes, and I've often felt forsaken And certainly misused But I'm all right, I'm all right I'm just weary to my bones Still you don't expect to be bright and bon vivant So far away from home, so far away from home And I don't know a soul who's not been battered I don't have a friend who feels at ease I don't know a dream that's not been shattered Or driven to its knees But it's all right, it's all right For we've lived so well, so long Still when I think of the road we're traveling on I wonder what's gone wrong I can't help it, I wonder what's gone wrong And I dreamed I was dyin' I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly And lookin' back down at me Smiled reassuringly And I dreamed I was flyin' And high up above my eyes could clearly see The Statue of Liberty Sailing away to sea And I dreamed us flyin' We come on a ship they called Mayflower We come on the ship that sailed the moon We come in the age's most uncertain hour And sing on American tune But it's all right, it's all right, it's all right We can't be forever blessed Still tomorrow's gonna be another working day And I'm tryin' to get some rest That's all I'm tryin' to get some rest
