Born in a jam session with friends in the living room of my condo in West LA, a college buddy, Lou, laid down a basic groove and chord progression on his guitar. He was always good at coming up with inspiring musical beds and guitar riffs.

On the spot I began singing a melody with simple words that jumped into my mind and sounded pretty cool.

“Ooooooh sail on the rail 🎵🎶”

Something about those words evoked a smooth, free-flowing, feel-good, even fantastical feeling.

So we ran with it.

LYRICS:

Oooh Sail on the Rail
Oooh Sail on the Rail

A wonderful ride
Upon the Goodyear blimp
The view from up high
the world is a brine shrimp

Magnarvolous prize
The bottle holds a ship
The Ocean and tide
Will never get to it

Vines tangle in time
Grow tighter when resist
A kiss to unwind
Continue to the cliff

Where gusty winds blow
Across the great divide
Step towards the unknown
And soar upon the drift

Winding winds below
Back and forth it blows
Watching it where it leads
Catch with and open sail

Effortlessly glide
Swift and subtle ride
Down a waterslide
Sailing upon a smooth rail
