Row The Boat Together |
Standing by a riverside |
A river so deep and so wide |
Current’s too strong for only one man |
I know because I tried |
I got eight oars — |
Four on either side |
Is there anybody with me |
Eight hands four willing hearts |
Won’t someone answer my plea |
Well I got in the boat |
I stayed afloat |
Some way across I was tiring |
Well I need someone to help me |
To get to the other side |
Along came son of Alabama south |
He said «I heard you calling |
If you don’t mind the colour of my skin |
I’ll help you not to fall in» |
Then suddenly Joe from out of Tokyo |
«If my eyes don’t make you nervous |
I used to handle a junk back home» |
Said 'Can I be of service' |
Well we got in the boat |
We stayed afloat |
Halfway across we were tiring |
We got to row this boat together |
To get to the other side |
Two more oars |
Only one seat left |
One more person to lean on |
A brotherhood boat to a land called home |
With our share of freedom |
Got in the boat |
Stayed afloat |
There’s no need to be tiring |
We rowed this boat together |
Happiness meets the other side |
We rowed this boat together |
Happiness meets the other side |
We rowed this boat together |
Happiness meets the other side |
