Lyrics
  • The paddles on the boat go round and round
  • Round and round; round and round
  • The paddles on the boat go round and round all day long
  • The wipers on the boat go swish swish swish
  • Swish swish swish; swish swish swish
  • The wipers on the boat go swish swish swish all day long
  • The people on the boat go up and down; up and down; up and down
  • The people on the boat go up and down all day long
  • The horn on the boat goes beep beep beep; beep beep beep; beep beep beep
  • The horn on the boat goes beep beep beep all day long
  • The doors on the boat go open and shut; open and shut; open and shut
  • The doors on the boat go open and shut all day long
  • The driver on the boat says move on back; move on back; move on back
  • The driver on the boat says move on back all day long
Back
