[Verse 1]
You row your boat, I'll row mine
We'll both get there in our own sweet time
In our own sweet time
Own sweet time

[Verse 2]
Some stay in the shallow, some get in the deep
Some are slow and lazy, others up a creek
Others up a creek
You know what that means

[Chorus]
We get what we are given and hope that it floats
Everybody's on the river just taking different boats

[Verse 3]
He drinks liquor, she loves the Lord
Some hear the music, some jump overboard
Some jump overboard
They jump overboard

[Verse 4]
Hard storm's raging, out in thе West
Some nevеr get lucky, some mighta been born blessed
Might have been born blessed
Hard to say, I guess
[Chorus]
We get what we are given and we hope that it floats
Everybody's on the river just taking different boats

[Bridge]
Water is smooth, water is rough
You hang on tight, then you hang in tough
It don't matter, what will be will be, and be and be
We're all headed to the same sea

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 5]
You row your boat, and I'll row mine
We'll both get there in our own sweet time
In our own sweet time
Own good time

[Chorus]
We get what we are given and we hope that it floats
Everybody's on the river just taking different boats
We get what we are given and we hope that it floats
Everybody's on the river just taking different boats

[Outro]
Mmm
Different boats
