VERSE 1: 
       A N.C.               C N.C. 
If you think that a kiss is all in the lips 
     G N.C.             A N.C. 
Come on, you got it all wrong, man 
           A N.C.                   C N.C. 
And if you think that our dance was all in the hips 
    G N.C.            A 
Oh, well, then do the twist 
       A N.C.                   C N.C. 
If you take holdin' hands, it's all in the fingers 
     G N.C.                     A              /g 
Grab hold of the soul where the memory lingers 
    A N.C.              C N.C. 
And  make sure to never do it with them singers 
               G N.C.               A 
'Cause they'll tell everyone in the world 
/g          C         G        A 
What he was thinkin' about the girl 
               C         G        A    /g 
Yeah what he's thinkin' about the girl 
 
 
VERSE 2: 
Oh, a lot of people get confused they bruise 
Real easy when it comes to love 
They start puttin' on their shoes and walkin' out 
And singin', "Boy, I think I had enough" 
But just because she makes a big rumpus 
She don't mean to be mean, or hurt you on purpose, boy 
Take a tip and do yourself a little service 
Take a mountain, turn it into a mole 
Just by playin' a different role 
Yeah, by playin' a different role 
 
Chorus: 
A A /g 
      Oh, 
E 
  The boat, yeah, you know she's rockin' it 
G 
  And the truth, well, you know there's no stoppin' it

VERSE 3: 
So what, somebody left you in a rut 
And wants to be the one who's in control 
But the feelin' that you're under can really make you wonder 
How the hell she could be so cold 
So now you're left denying the truth 
And it's hidden in the wisdom in the back of your tooth 
You need to spit it out in a telephone booth 
While you call everyone that you know 
And ask them, "Where do you think she goes?" 
Oh yeah, "Where do you suppose she goes?" 
 
Chorus: 
A A /g 
      Oh, 
E 
  The truth, well, you know there's no stoppin' it 
G 
  And the boat, well, you know she's still rockin' it 
 
  
 
 
VERSE 4: 
You recognize the effect and affect  
That it's causin' when she rocks the boat   
But it's the cause hittin' on the cardinal laws 
'Bout the proper place to hang her coat 
So to you, the truth is still hidden 
And the soul plays the role of the lost little kitten 
But you should know that the doctors weren't kiddin' 
She was singin' it all along 
But you were hearin' a different a song 
Yeah, you were hearin' a different song 
 
             C         G         A 
But you were hearin' a different song
