Sit Down, You're Rockin' the Boat
Lyricist:Frank Loesser
‽We will now hear testimony from Brother Nicely Nicely Johnson Brother Nicely Nicely Johnson†‽Well, it happened to me kinda funny, like a dream†‽That's it, a dreamâ€, ‽Tell us in your own wordsâ€
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†People all said, ‽Sit down Sit down, you're rockin' the boatâ€
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 rockin' 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 whisky But the passengers were bound to resist
For the people all said, ‽Beware You're on a heavenly trip†People all said, ‽Beware Beware, you'll scuttle the shipâ€
And the Devil will drag you under Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com 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†Said to myself, ‽Sit down Sit down, you're rockin' the boatâ€
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
Sit down, you're rockin', rockin' the boat Sit down, you're rockin', rockin' the boat Sit down, you're rockin', rockin' the boat Sit down, you're rockin', rockin' the boat
Sit down, you're rockin', rockin' the boat Sit down, you're rockin', rockin' the boat Sit down, you're rockin', rockin' the boat Sit down, you're rockin', rockin' the boat Sit down, you're rockin', rockin' the boat
Sit down, you're rockin' the boat
