The Boat Song

 

(Puff:) We'll cross the ocean on a magic boat, a magic boat, a magic boat.

(Jackie:) Let's cross the ocean on a magic boat

(Both:) and sail across the water.

(Jackie:) Let's make a main mast out of my bed post, my bed post, my bed post.
(Puff:) We'll make the main mast out of your bed post
(Both:) and sail across the water.

(Both:) When we get to a magic land,
(Jackie:) Yes we can, I know we can
(Both:) When we get to a magic land far across the sea.

(Jackie:) Let's make the rudder out of my guitar, my guitar, my guitar.
(Puff:) We'll make the rudder out of your guitar
(Both:) And sail across the water.

(Both:) Now we can sail away to Hona-Lee, Hona-Lee, Hona-Lee.
Now we can sail away to Hona-Lee far across the water.

(Puff:) The you won't be frightened like you were before...
