Lyrics

If I Had a Boat__ it'd be all mine
If I Had a Boat__ I'd make it shine
I'd go to the east__ I'd go to the west
I'd take it everywhere__ it'd be my quest
I'd take it everywhere__ it'd be my quest

But I'd capsize__ if I couldn't take you
But I'd capsize__ if I couldn't take you


If I Had a Boat__ I'd want it to fly
If I Had a Boat__ I'd want it to submerge
I'd go up__ and I'd go down
Take it everywhere__ all over town
Take it everywhere__ all over town

But I'd falter__ if you went and bailed

The pirates wouldn't bother me
The captain wouldn't make me walk the plank
Storms and high waves go by and -
Even mermaids would stop and smile
Yeah - smile__ yeah yeah they'd smile
He's a happy sailor

If I had a boat (if he had a boat)
If I had a boat (if he had a boat)
If I had a boat (if he had a boat)

But I'd capsize__ if I couldn't take you

If I Had a Boat__ I'd make it pink
If I Had a Boat__ it'd hold everyone
Rich or poor__ black or white
Pull out ev'ry mornin' __ sail right into the night
Pull out ev'ry mornin' __ sail into the night

But I'm in irons__ if you can't be my bride
Yes I'm in irons__ if you can't be my wife

If I Had a Boat__ it'd be all mine
If I Had a Boat__ I'd make it shine
I'd go to the east__ I'd go to the west
I'd take it everywhere__ it'd be my quest
I'd take it everywhere__ it'd be my quest

If I Had a Boat__ I'd take you
