Michael Row the Boat Ashore
You may of thought you were
Coming here tonight to sit back
And take things easy while we did all the work
But I'm gonna ask you to sing this one
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
You get the idea, all you do is come in on the 'hallelujah'
Now clear out your throat and singing that
Hallelujah
Oh, I can hardly hear you! Try it again
Hallelujah
That's it. Then I sing another line ladadida, you sing
Hallelujah
Try that
Hallejuah
Say got any high tenors here tonight, sopranos? Who can reach up here?
Hallelujah
Try it
Hallelujah
Hey, we've got a few tenors, pretty good
Now you sing high and basses
Hallelujah
Ok, let's put it all together, see how it sounds
Don't let your neighbour look at you peculiarly
If you sing too loud you kick them in
The ribs and get them singing too
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Micheal row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Sister helped to trim the sail, hallelujah
Sister helped to trim the sail, hallelujah
The river is deep and the river is wide, hallelujah
Greener pastures on the other side, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Micheal row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Jorden's river is chilly and cold, hallelujah
Chills the body, but not the soul, hallelujah
The river is deep and the river is wide, hallelujah
Milk and honey on the other side, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Micheal row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Micheal row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Micheal row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Coming here tonight to sit back
And take things easy while we did all the work
But I'm gonna ask you to sing this one
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore, hallelujah
You get the idea, all you do is come in on the 'hallelujah'
Now clear out your throat and singing that
Hallelujah
Oh, I can hardly hear you! Try it again
