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 parkIt'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!Words and Music by Irving Gordon
