Sail to the Moon
Rockabye Baby! Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I Spoke Too Soon
And How Much Did It Cost?
I Was Dropped From Moonbeams
And Sailed On Shooting Stars
Maybe You'll
Be President
But Know Right From Wrong
You'll Build An Ark
And Sail Us To The Moon
Sail Us To The Moon
