Wishing well

The first track off of Free's 1973 album, Heartbreaker. It remains one of their most well known and popular songs.

VERSE 1 Take off your hat, kick off your shoes I know you ain't going anywhere Run round the town singing your blues I know you ain't going anywhere CHORUS 1 You've always been a good friend of mine But you're always saying farewell And the only time that you're satisfied Is with your feet in the wishing well VERSE 2 Throw down your gun, you might shoot yourself Or is that what you're trying to do? Put up a fight you believe to be right And someday the sun will shine through CHORUS 2 You've always got something to hide Something you just can't tell And the only time that you're satisfied Is with your feet in the wishing well MIDDLE EIGHT And I know what you're wishing for Love and a peaceful world Love and a peaceful world Love and a peaceful world Love and a peaceful world CHORUS 1 I wish you well The wishing well Everybody has a wish Everybody has a dream I wish you well You have to dream your own dream
