Row The Boat Together Lyrics - Hollies

Standing by a riverside 

A river so deep and so wide 

Current's too strong for only one man 

I know because I tried 

I got eight oars - 

four on either side 

Is there anybody with me 

Eight hands four willing hearts 

Won't someone answer my plea 

Well I got in the boat 

I stayed afloat 

Some way across I was tiring 

Well I need someone to help me 

to get to the other side

Along came son of Alabama south 

He said "I heard you calling 

If you don't mind the colour of my skin 

I'll help you not to fall in" 

Then suddenly Joe from out of Tokyo 

"If my eyes don't make you nervous 

I used to handle a junk back home" 

Said 'Can I be of service' 

Well we got in the boat 

we stayed afloat 

Halfway across we were tiring 

We got to row this boat together 

to get to the other side

Two more oars 

only one seat left 

One more person to lean on 

A brotherhood boat to a land called home 

with our share of freedom 

Got in the boat 

stayed afloat 

There's no need to be tiring 

We rowed this boat together 

Happiness meets the other side 

We rowed this boat together 

Happiness meets the other side 

We rowed this boat together 

Happiness meets the other side
