There's No Boat
Like a Rowboat
Oh, there's no boat like a
rowboat
for row, row romancin' love . . .
Hearts will skip an' they'll
miss
as we kiss in the dark
Oh what love we can make
on a lake in the park
It's an ocean of devotion
a floating dream for two . . .
Oh, I keep hopin' that
the oars will stray
so we could drift forever
and a day!
'Cause, there's no boat like a
rowboat
it's row, row rosy
for row, row romance
in a row, row, rowboat with
you!
[ instrumental break ]
( Don't
wanna steam boat! )
that's not my dreamboat
( Don't
wanna sail boat! )
or a whale boat!
( Don't
wanna tug boat, a chug-a-lug boat! )
or an ocean liner
on it's way to China!
Oh, there's no boat like a
rowboat
for row, row romancin' love . . .
[ instrumental break ]
It's an ocean of devotion
a floating dream for two . .
.
[ instrumental break ]
'Cause, there's no boat like a
rowboat
in a row, row rowboat with
you!
[ instrumental break ]
( l
could skip an' they'll miss
as we
kiss in the dark )
Oh what love we can make
in the lake in the park
( It's
an ocean of devotion
a
floating dream for two . . . )
Oh, I keep hoping that
the oars will stray
so we could drift forever
and a day!
'Cause, there's no boat like a
rowboat
it's row, row rosy
for row, row romance
in a row, row, rowboat with
you!
