ICELY-NICELY:
I dreamed last night I got on the bangka to Heaven
And sa pamamagitan ng 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 you under
sa pamamagitan ng 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 bangka to Heaven
And sa pamamagitan ng 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 you under
sa pamamagitan ng 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 sinabi to myself, "Sit down"
ENSEMBLE:
sinabi to himself, "Sit down, sit down"
NICELY-NICELY:
"Sit down you're rocking the boat."
sinabi to myself, "Sit down"
ENSEMBLE:
sinabi to himself, "Sit down"
NICELY-NICELY:
"Sit down you're rocking the boat
And the devil will drag you under
ENSEMBLE:
And the devil will drag you 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, you Sit down you're the boat!"
