ICELY-NICELY:
I dreamed last night I got on the barco to Heaven
And por some chance I had brought my dice along,
And there I stood, and I hollered,
"Someone fade me,"
But the passengers they knew right from wrong
For the people all said,
"Sit down, sit down you're rockin' the boat."
ENSEMBLE:
People all said,
"Sit down, sit down you're rockin' the boat."
NICELY-NICELY:
"And the devil will drag tu under
por the sharp lapel of your checkered coat;
Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down
NICELY-NICELY & ENSEMBLE:
Sit down you're rocking the boat."
NICELY-NICELY:
I sailed
ENSEMBLE:
OOH...
NICELY-NICELY:
Away on that little barco to Heaven
And por some chance found a bottle in my fist,
And there I stood,
Nicely passin' out the whiskey,
But the passengers were bound to resist
For the people all said, "Beware!"
ENSEMBLE:
People all said, "beware, beware!"
NICELY-NICELY:
You're on a heavenly trip."
People all said, "beware!"
ENSEMBLE:
People all said, "beware!"
NICELY-NICELY:
"Beware you'll scuttle the ship;
And the devil will drag tu under
por the fancy tie 'round your wicked throat;
Sit down,
NICELY-NICELY & ENSEMBLE:
Sit down, sit down, sit down,
Sit down you're rockin' the boat."
NICELY-NICELY:
And as
ENSEMBLE:
OOH...
NICELY-NICELY:
I laughed at those passengers to Heaven
Ah, ah, ah, ah!
A great big wave came and washed me overboard,
And as I sank, and I hollered,
"Someone save me,"
That's the moment I woke up, thank the Lord!
ENSEMBLE:
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord!
NICELY-NICELY:
And I dicho to myself, "Sit down"
ENSEMBLE:
dicho to himself, "Sit down, sit down"
NICELY-NICELY:
"Sit down you're rocking the boat."
dicho to myself, "Sit down"
ENSEMBLE:
dicho to himself, "Sit down"
NICELY-NICELY:
"Sit down you're rocking the boat
And the devil will drag tu under
ENSEMBLE:
And the devil will drag tu under
NICELY-NICELY:
With a soul so heavy you'd never float,
Sit down
NICELY-NICELY & ENSEMBLE:
Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down,
Sit down you're rockin' the boat-
Sit down you're rockin'
Rockin' the boat
Sit down you're rockin'
Rockin' the boat
Sit down you're rockin'
Rockin' the boat
Sit down you're rockin'
Rockin' the boat...
Sit down, tu Sit down you're the boat!"
