The Boat Song

The Boat Song Lyrics

Floating down the river
Sailing on the sea
Cruising on the ocean
Boats are for me

I saw a boat
Pulling another
I didn't know the boat
So I asked my mother
She said, "That's a tugboat son"
I saw a boat going faster and farther
I didn't know the boat
So I asked my father
He said, "That's a speedboat son"

I saw a boat
Full of fisherman
I saw a boat full of businessmen
I saw a boat
You know what it was doing?

Oh, floating down the river
Sailing on the sea
Cruising on the ocean
Boats are for me

I saw a boat
Transporting cargo
I didn't know the boat
So I asked my friend Marco
He said, "That's a cargo ship"
I saw a boat with planes on top
I didn't know the boat
So I asked my friend Rob
He said, "That's an aircraft carrier"

I saw a boat that was fire fightin'
I saw a boat that was bright as lightning
I saw a boat
You know what it was doing?

Oh, floating down the river
Sailing on the sea
Cruising on the ocean
Boats are for me, yeah

Floating down the river
Sailing on the sea
Cruising on the ocean
Boats are for me

Floating down the river
Sailing on the sea
Cruising on the ocean
Boats are for me
