Lyrics
Getting There
Hey!! The sails are up
The sheets are tied
Hold on and enjoy the ride
We?re steady getting there
The rigging?s tight
The mast is strong
Heeled and sailing along
We?re steady getting there
We?re getting there
We might not be doing it just like you
We?re getting there *CHORUS*
Making headway in a wind that?s true
We?re getting there
Never early never overdue
We?re steady getting there
Sun and wind and salt and spray
Couldn?t be a better day
We?re steady getting there
Kicking back and slicing through
You got me and I got you
We?re steady getting there
And we?re getting there . . . CHORUS
The sails are up
The sheets are tied
Hold on and enjoy the ride
We?re steady getting there
We're steady getting there
We're steady getting there
