(with Margaret Whiting)

(MW) Don't rock the boat dear
(MW) Keep our love afloat dear

(MW) Strike that happy note dear
(MW) We're not lost at sea

(DM) Keep our love ready
(DM) And never high or heady
(DM) Always keep it steady
(DM) The way it ought to be

(Both) Even though we're out in deep water
(Both) We must save the future for sons and daughters
(MW) Don't rock the ship dear
(DM) Here's a little tip dear
(MW) Make each trip a pip dear
(Both) Just for the likes of you and me

(DM) Don't rock the yacht dear
(MW) Don't you go to pot dear
(DM) This year is a hot year
(DM) We're not lost at sea

(MW) Don't rock the scow now
(DM) Charm me off the bow now
(MW) Love me here and now
(Both) Wow the way it ought to be

(DM) Even though we're out in deep water
(MW) We must save the future for sons and daughters
(DM) Don't rock the sloop dear
(MW) Don't be nincompoop dear
(DM) Lovers loop the loop dear
(Both) It was made for us

(MW) Don't rock the craft dear
(DM) We're not on a raft dear
(MW) Love before and aft (Both) dear
(Both) Don't rock the boat dear
(DM) Keep our love afloat dear
(MW) Strike that happy note dear (Both) dear
(Both) Just for the likes of you and me
