Sailing Song was written by Jack Dunlap. It was another song intended initially for Jack's bluegrass solo project.
"I wrote the melody to Sailing Song on the way home from a Jack Dunlap Band practice one night. I spent the rest of the evening trying to think of lyrics I could put to it, but it wasn't until I laid down and shut my eyes that it hit me, "Sailing on the ocean, sailing far away…" and it wasn't long until I had the rest of the song down."
