Row, row, row your boat,
Gently down the stream.
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,
Life is but a dream.

Gently down the stream.
If you see an alligator,
Don't forget to scream.

Row, row, row your boat,
Gently down the stream.
Throw your teacher overboard
And listen to her scream.

Row, row, row your boat,
Gently down the stream.
Verily, verily, verily, verily,
Life is but a dream.
