Fix the Boat, or Swim

Spoken sample:

While whats in the river (?) tonight. (?) Cincinnati (?)

Sung:

You've got to fix the boat

Or get out and swim

You don't sit there, bitching, sinking

Clean up that mess you're in!

Don't waste another minute

With your howls and moans

You don't do yourself no favors

Pick up those lazy bones

When your river's run its course

The jungle vines are thick

When the native beastie's hungry

Better pick a larger stick

Don't stand on deck bemoaning

All that you might lose

When the crocodiles are hungry

Now's not the time to snooze

When your river's run its course

The jungle vines are thick

When the native beastie's hungry

Better pick a larger stick

You can't stand on deck bemoaning

All that you might lose

When the crocodiles are hungry

It's not the time to snooze

You've got to fix the boat

Or get out and swim

Don't sit there, bitching, sinking

Clean up that mess you're in!

Don't waste another minute

With your howls and moans

You don't do yourself no favors

Pick up those lazy bones
