ROW THIS WAY
(With apologies to RUn DMC and Aerosmith)

Bow-man rower always hidin' behind the others
Still I talked to your coach, he say
He said you ain't seen nothing
'til your crew gets a stuffing
Then you're sure to be changing your ways

I met a novice lady, was a real slide speeder
All the times I can reminisce
'cause the best thing scullin'
With her sister and her cousin
Only started in a little skiff, like this

See-saw skyin' with the boys in the crew
And your blade flyin' up in the air
Singin' hey diddle-diddle with the kitty in the middle
You be skying like you just don't care

So I took a big chance at the crew try outs
With a cox who was ready to play
Was it me she was foolin'
'cause she knew what she was doin'
When she told me how to row this way
She told me to

Row this way, scull this way
Row this way, row this way
Row this way, row this way
Row this way, scull this way
Just give it some reach.like this

School girl rower with the classy kinda sassy
Uni-suit climbing way up her knees
There were three other ladies in the school team coxless
And I noticed they was lookin' at me

I was a lightweight loser
Never made it on the first eight
Till the cox told me something I missed Then the head coach, Peter
Empty seat, needs a favour
So I gave it just a bit more reach.like this

See-saw skying' with the boys in the crew
And your blade flyin' up in the air
Singin' hey diddle-diddle with the kitty in the middle
You be skying like you just didn't care

So I took a big chance at the crew try outs
With a cox who was ready to play
Was it me she was foolin'
'cause she knew what she was doin'
When she told me how to row this way
She told me to

Row this way, scull this way
Row this way, row this way
Row this way, row this way
Row this way, scull this way
Just give it some reach.like this
