Oh, there's no boat like a rowboat
For row, row romancin' love . .

Hearts will skip an' they'll miss
As we kiss in the dark
Oh what love we can make
On a lake in the park

It's an ocean of devotion
A floating dream for two . .

Oh, I keep hopin' that
The oars will stray
So we could drift forever
And a day!

'Cause, there's no boat like a rowboat
It's row, row rosy
For row, row romance
In a row, row, rowboat with you!

( instrumental break )

( Don't wanna steam boat! )
That's not my dreamboat
( Don't wanna sail boat! )
Or a whale boat!
( Don't wanna tug boat, a chug-a-lug boat! )
Or an ocean liner
On it's way to China!
Oh, there's no boat like a rowboat
For row, row romancin' love . .

( instrumental break )

It's an ocean of devotion
A floating dream for two . .

( instrumental break )

'Cause, there's no boat like a rowboat
In a row, row rowboat with you!

( instrumental break )

( l could skip an' they'll miss
As we kiss in the dark )
Oh what love we can make
In the lake in the park

( It's an ocean of devotion
A floating dream for two . . . )

Oh, I keep hoping that
The oars will stray
So we could drift forever
And a day!
'Cause, there's no boat like a rowboat
It's row, row rosy
For row, row romance
In a row, row, rowboat with you!
