Sing along
Row, row, row your boat, gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, life is but a dream
Row, row, row your boat, gently down the stream
If you see a crocodile, don't forget to scream
Row, row, row your boat, gently to the shore
If you see a lion, don't forget to roar
Row, row, row your boat, gently down the river
If you see a polar bear, don't forget to shiver
Rock, rock, rock your boat, gently to and fro
This way, that way, over the side you go! (splash)

Did you know?
This song is technically a round — a song where different people can start singing at different times and it still sounds good together, like Frère Jacques.
