The boat that I row Lyrics

Artist: Neil Diamond
Album: Classics/Early Years

Written by: Neil Diamond

I don't have a lot but with me that's fine
Whatever I got, well, I know it's mine
I don't go around with the local crowd
I don't ??? so I guess I'm out

I'm sayin' these things so you know me, baby
So you understand what I'm all about

The boat that I row won't cross no ocean
The boat that I row won't get me there soon
But I got the love and if you got the notion
The boat that I row is big enough for two
That's me and you

There ain't a man in life tell me what to say
I choose my own side and I like it that way
I don't worry about the thinkgs that I'm not
There's only one thing that I want I ain't got

You know that I'm talking about you baby
So you better know and come along

They missed an entire verse and recorded the ending wrong! It's supposed to end like this:

You know that I�m talking about you baby
So you better know and come along

[Chorus]
The boat that I row won�t cross no ocean
The boat that I row won�t get me there soon
But I got the love and if you got the notion
The boat that I row is big enough for two
That�s me and you

I�m saying these things so you know me baby

that you�ll understand what I�m all about

[Chorus]
The boat that I row won�t cross no ocean
The boat that I row won�t get me there soon
But I got the love and if you got the notion
The boat that I row is big enough for two
That�s me and you

Good catch and good eye. I thought that the song written lyrics seemed a bit short.
