Alternative Lyrics & Words
A funny alternative version goes like this
Row, row, row your boat
gently down the stream
and if you see a crocodile,
don't forget to scream
Aghhhh!
Another very funny version
Row Row Row Your Boat
Gently down the stream
You throw your teacher overboard
And listen to her scream
Here's another couple of verses
Row, row, row your boat
Down the Arctic river
If you see a polar bear
Don't forget to shiver
Row, row, row your boat
Gently to the shore
If you see a lion there
Don't forget to roar
Here's some new verses
Row row row your boat
Gently down the stream
Throw your teacher overboard
And listen to her scream.
Nine days later
Floating down Dellaware
Chewing on her underware
Wish she had another pair.
Ten days later
Bitten by a polar bear
And that's how the polar bear died!
Additional Version
Row row row your boat
Smile and pull the plug
Merrily merrily merrily merrily
Glug glug glug glug glug
Row row row your boat
Gentily down the steam
Give a smile pull the plug
And become a submarine!
