Song Lines


When David and Bean were drunk and were singing their own version of Row Row Row Your Boat what were the lyrics to the song?

reply

Row row row your boat, gently down the stream, if you see a crocodile, don't forget to scream.

reply

That wasn't their version, I am sure I have heard it in other contexts.

reply

That was their version, however in Blackadder 4, Rowan Atkinson and Stephen Fry sing the song, but in a more adult context:

Row row row your boat
Gently down the stream
Belts off, trousers down
Isn't life a scream

I think the version in the Bean movie was cleaned up to the crocodile version owing to the family oriented nature of the movie.
