Guys And Dolls - Sit Down, Your Rocking the Boat Lyrics

Sit Down, Your Rocking the Boat
I dreamed last night
I got on to the boat to Heaven
And by some chance
I had brought my dice along
And there I stood and I hollered;
"Someone fade me!"
But the passengers,
they knew right from wrong

Chorus
For the people all said
Sit down, sit down you're rocking the boat
Sit down, sit down you're rocking the boat
And the devil will drag you under
By the sharp lapelle
Of your checkered coat
Sit down!
Sit down!
Sit down!
Sit down you're rocking the boat!

I sailed away on that little boat to Heaven
And by some chance
Found a bottle in my fist
And there I stood
Nicely, passing out the wiskey
But the passenger were bound to resist

Chorus
For the people all said
Beware, you're on a Heavenly trip
Beware beware you'll struggle the ship
And the devil will drag you under
By the fancy tie
'round your wicked throat
Sit down!
Sit down!
Sit down!
Sit down you're rocking the boat!

And as I laughed
At those passengers to Heaven
A great big wave came
And washed me overboard!
And as I sank, and I whispered
Someone save me
That's the moment I woke up
Thank the Lord

And I said to myself
Sit down, sit down
You're rocking the boat
Sit down, sit down
You're rocking the boat
Or the devil will drag you under
With a soul so heavy
That you'll never float
Sit down!
Sit down!
Sit down!
Sit down!
Sit down you're rocking the boat
Sit down
Sit down
Sit down
Sit down
Sit down you're rocking the boat
Sit down!
Sit down!
Sit down!
Sit down!
You're rocking the boat!
