don't rock the boat, dear

don't rock the boat dear

keep our love afloat dear

strike that happy note dear

we're not lost at sea

keep our love ready

and never high or heady

always keep it steady

the way it ought to be

even though we're out in deep water

we must save the future for sons and daughters

don't rock the ship dear

here's a little tip dear

make each trip a pip dear

just for the likes of you and me

don't rock the yacht dear

don't you go to pot dear

this year is a hot year

we're not lost at sea

don't rock the scow now

charm me off the bow now

love me here and now

wow the way it ought to be

even though we're out in deep water

we must save the future for sons and daughters

don't rock the sloop dear

don't be nincompoop dear

lovers loop the loop dear

it was made for us

don't rock the craft dear

we're not on a raft dear

love before and aft dear

don't rock the boat dear

keep our love afloat dear

strike that happy note dear dear

just for the likes of you and me
