"Get On the Boat" Lyrics

Buy from iTunes: Prince

Look outside your window, tell me now what U see?
Comin' up the mountain 4 a new philosophy
Every single color, every race and every creed
Lookin' 4 the truth y'all, that's gonna set somebody free

Chorus:
Get on the boat, get on the boat, people
Get on the boat now, we got room 4 a hundred more
Get on the boat, get on the boat, people
Get on the boat now, we got room 4 a hundred more
All across the nation, people doin' what they can
2 avoid the tribulation that will be great throughout the land
(Everything) Everything in darkness must come out in2 the light
(That's right)
Until we love each other, it's the only way it's gonna be right (Hey!)

Chorus

(Oh yeah)
Good God!
Say it again!

Bridge:
We were meant 2 live 2gether
Underneath the sun
I can't think of nothing better
Don't U wanna come?
Get on the boat

Never mind what time it is, the party just begun
No te alejes de esto momento de inspiracion
   {U do not move away from this moment of inspiration}
U can let your hair down, let the music move your feet
Panamama bring the drama, dancin' 2 the beat
Maceo!

What's the harm in listenin' 2 the hopeful words we say?
If it moves your heart then U better get in without delay
Get on the boat, get on the boat people
Get on the boat now, we got room 4 a hundred more
Dance 2 the beat, row, Ray, Ray
Lead line, horns, hit me now!

Chorus

We were meant 2 live 2gether
Underneath the sun
I can't think of nothin' better
Don't U wanna come?
Get on the boat
Oh yeah!

Get on the boat (Get on)
Get on the boat people (Come on, come on)
Get on the boat now, oh
We got room 4 a hundred more
Get on the boat (Every color)
Get on the boat people (Every creed)
Get on the boat now (Come on, come on)
We got room 4 a hundred more (Come with me)

Chorus

Hah!
Work on it!
Lead line, lead line
Can't stand it
Keep it going, keep it going
(Y'all get on the boat, come on)
(Get on the boat, come on)
