Sit Down, You're Rocking The Boat
Roger Whittaker

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

The 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 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, you are on a heavenly trip

The 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 I laughed at those passengers to Heaven

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


And I said to myself

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

I said to myself

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


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, you're rockin' the boat


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, you're rockin' the boat


Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down

Sit down, you're rockin' the boat

Sit down
