[Verse 1]
Over the horizon
Smooth sailin'
These concrete seas
Now she's headed
East down the boule–, the –vard
[Refrain]
Sugar, said I like the way (Like the way)
Said I like the way (Like the way)
You sail your ship down
Let me be your cargo
I won't weigh you down
No, honey, I won't weigh you down
[Saxophone Solo]
[Verse 2]
I don't really know
Her destination
But I got a feeling I
Get to be your passenger
Sugar, let me be your passenger
[Refrain]
Sugar, said I like the way, come on (Like the way)
Said I like the way (Like the way)
You sail your ship down
Let me be your cargo
I won't weigh you down
No, honey, I won't weigh you down
[Chorus]
She's smooth
Smooth sailin', yeah (Smooth sailin', yeah)
She's smooth
Smooth, darling
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Sweet pretty, baby
Won't you be my lady now, oh?
Alright, sweet honey, darling
You know I'm calling
That's what I'm talking about
[Refrain]
Sugar, said I like the way (Like the way)
Said I like the way (Like the way)
You sail your ship down
Let me be your cargo
I won't weigh you down
No, honey, I won't weigh you down
[Chorus]
She's smooth
Smooth sailin', yeah (Smooth sailin', yeah)
She's smooth
Ooh, darling
[Bridge]
Sweet pretty, baby
Won't you be my lady now, oh?
Sweet honey, darling
You know I'm calling
That's what I'm talking about
[Chorus]
Sugar, said I like the way (Like the way)
Said I like the way (Like the way)
You sail your ship down
Let me be your cargo
I won't weigh you down
No, honey, I won't weigh you down
[Outro]
If you got a loved one, hold them real close for this next one
Or hold somebody close if you want to
Whatever you want to do
