Sit Down, You're Rockin' The Boat lyrics

I dreamed last night I got on the boat to heaven

And by 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

People all said

Sit down, sit down, you're rockin' the boat

And the devil will drag you under

By the sharp lapel of your checkered coat

Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down

Sit down you're rocking the boat

I sailed, ooh

Away on that little boat to heaven

And by 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"

People all said, "Beware, beware"

You're on a heavenly trip"

People all said, "Beware"

People all said, "Beware"

Beware you'll scuttle the ship

And the devil will drag you under

By the fancy tie 'round your wicked throat

Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down

Sit down, you're rockin' the boat

And as ooh

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

Thank the Lord, thank the Lord

And I said to myself, "Sit down"

Said to himself, "Sit down, sit down"

Sit down, you're rocking the boat

Said to myself, "Sit down"

Said to himself, "Sit down"

Sit down you're rocking the boat

And the devil will drag you under

And the devil will drag you under

With a soul so heavy you'd never float, sit down

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, you sit down, you're the boat
