Verse 1:

F
Young Johnnie Jones he had a cute little boat
                             C7
And all the girlies he would take for a float
               F
He had girlies on the shore,
G7                   C7
Sweet little peaches by the score

F
But Johnnie was a Wisenheimer you know
           D7       Gm
His steady girl was Flo
G7               C               G7
And every Sunday afternoon she'd jump in his boat
               C
and they would spoon

Chorus:

B7  C7   B7   F
And then he'd row, row, row, way up the river
         Bb
He would  row, row, row, a hug he'd give her
          C7                    B7C7
Then he'd kiss her now and then ,
                       B7C7
She would tell him when
     F
He'd fool around and fool around and
                 C7
Then they'd kiss again

              F
And then he'd  row, row, row
A little further
   Bb          D7      Gm
He  would row, oh! oh! oh! oh!
          Bb
Then he'd drop both his oars
       F   E    EbD7
Take a few more encores
              G7   C7    F  C7
And then he'd row,  row, row

Verse 2:

F
Right in his boat he had a cute little seat
F                            C7
And every kiss he stole from Flo was so sweet
                 F
And he knew just how to row,
G7              C7
He was a rowing  Romeo

F
He knew an island where the trees were so grand
             D7       Gm
He knew just where to land
G7                      C
Then tales of love he'd tell to Flo
  G7                       C7
Until it was time for them go

Chorus Repeat:

B7C7
