Lyrics

Dave:
Careful now fellas, steady.
Don't tip it over, sit still.
Ready? Pull, stroke.

Simon & Theodore (Dave):
Row, row, row your boat (Pull, stroke)
Gently down the stream (Pull, stroke)
Merrily, happily, happily, merrily
Life is but a dream

Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily, happily, happily, merrily
Life is but a dream

Love to row in a boat

Alvin:
Most of all we like it if the boat will float

Simon & Theodore:
It's a joy, lotta fun
If you get a little wet
You've got the sun to dry you

Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily, happily, happily, merrily
Life is but a dream

Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily, happily, happily, merrily
Life is but a dream

The Chipmunks:
First you heave, then you ho
It'll make you stronger every time you row
Give it all that you got
Then relax and put a bandage
On your blister, mister

Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily, happily, happily, merrily
Life is but a dream!
