Lyrics Sit Down, You're Rockin' the Boat

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 boat
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 whiskey
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 ship
And the devil will drag you under
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 ah ah ah ah
A great big wave came and washed me over board
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 boat
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 boat
Sit down you're rockin' sit down sit down sit down you're rockin' the boat
Sit down you're rockin' sit down sit down sit down
You're rockin' the boat sit down
