Row row row your boat gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily life is but a dream
Row row row your boat gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily life is but a dream
I call you my papa, you call me dear son
I am also your best friend close like real brother
I want to take after you
Show me dear son how to row
Take my hand into yours and row our boat away
Row row row your boat gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily life is but a dream
Row row row your boat gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily life is but a dream
Every time I see you row, papa
I smile with pride, I feel so good inside
I wanna be like you, daddy
I wanna be like you, daddy
Every time I fail to do the things you do
There's so much sorrow in my soul
I wanna be like you, daddy
I wanna be like you
I wanna be, I wanna be like you, like you, daddy
I wanna be like you, daddy
(The way you row, the way you row)
I wanna be like you
Row row row your boat gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily life is but a dream
Row row row your boat gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily life is but a dream
Nukhwesa nukhwesa (I wanna be like you, daddy)
Nukhwesa nukhwesa (I wanna be like you, daddy)
Nalera nalera mama natekha natekha
Nukhwesa nukhwesa (I wanna be like you, daddy)
I wanna be like you, daddy
I wanna be like you, daddy
I wanna be like you, daddy
I wanna be like you, daddy
Row row row your boat gently down the stream
(Row row row your boat gently down the stream)
Row row row your boat gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily...
