Tom Paxton - Boat In The Water Lyrics
Let's get this boat in the water
With the oars where they oughta
We'll roll down this river to the sea
We'll sail off in the sunset
To some place we ain't been yet
There are islands in the ocean
You can't reach except by boatin'
Where the coconuts and mangos fall from trees
On the beaches soft as cotton
All your troubles soon forgotten
You can toss 'em up, loose 'em in the breeze
Let's get this boat in the water
With the oars where they oughta
We'll sail off in the sunset
To some place we ain't been yet
Just to say that we've been there, you and me
If we never make it back, hell, we won't care
Just as long as we can say that we've been there
If we want to see some more of
We can sail to Bora Bora
Where they say the fish are bitin' there all day
And the natives one supposes
Run around without their clothes
You can feel your inhibitions slip away
Let's get this boat in the water
With the oars where they oughta
We'll roll down this river to the sea
We'll sail off in the sunset
To some place we ain't been yet
Just to say that we've been there, you and me
Oh, we can say that we've been there, you and me
