The Canoe Song

Just a boy and a girl in a little canoe,

With the moon shinin’ all around.

He held that paddle so

You couldn’t even hear a sound.

So they talked and they talked

Till the moon grew dim

He said, “Ya better kiss me or get out and swim.”

So what ya gonna do in a little canoe

With the moon shinin’ all around?

Just a boy and a girl in a little canoe,

With the moon shinin’ all around.

He held that paddle so

You couldn’t even hear a sound.

So they talked and they talked

Till the moon grew dim

He said, “Ya better kiss me or get out and swim.”

So what ya gonna do in a little canoe

With the moon shinin’ all-a

The girl paddlin’ all-a

The boy swimmin’ all around?
