The Boat that I Row

Lulu · The Complete Mickie Most Recordings: To Sir With Love [2009]

I don't have a lot but with me that's fine,

Whatever I got, well, I know it's mine.

I don't go around with the local crowd.

I don't dig what's in, so I guess I'm out.

I'm sayin' these things so you know me, baby.

So you understand what I'm all about.



The boat that I row won't cross no ocean;

The boat that I row won't get me there soon.

But I got the love and if you got the notion,

The boat that I row's big enough for two,

Me and you.



There ain't a man alive can tell me what to say.

I choose my own side and I like it that way.

I don't worry about all the things that I'm not.

There's only one thing that I want I ain't got.

You know that I'm thinkin' about you, baby.

But you better know before you come along.



The boat that I row won't cross no ocean;

The boat that I row won't get me there soon.

But I got the love and if you got the notion,

The boat that I row's big enough for two,

Me and you.



I'm sayin' these things so you know me, baby.

So you understand what I'm all about.

The boat that I row won't cross no ocean;

The boat that I row won't get me there soon.

But I got the love and if you got the notion,

The boat that I row's big enough for two,

Just me and you.
