Lyrics
i'm on a boat and i'm goin' no where
floatin' on the water and i don'tt care
i'll sing to the boat, i'll sing out loud
i'm on the water, so it's allowed
i'm on the water, we're flying fast
away from the city at last
i saw a fish, look over there!
i'm on the water
and i don't want to go home
i want to stay here on the water
i don't want to go home
can't we stay here a few days
i don't want to go home
i want to stay here on the water
on the water
i'm on a boat just wasting time
yes, i like this just fine
sun on my back and the wind in my hair
there's nothing that can compare
chorus
floating slowly rolllling ohs
rising higher oh my well i...
chorus
