Ain’T No Wheels On This Ship

Row Row Row

Row Row Row

I use to have big money

That was many moons ago

You use to call me honey

Now you call me so and so

Cause there ain't no wheels on this ship

And we can't row row row

We can't row row row

We can't row

Row row row

Row row row

You use to be big papa

The cat of every ball

Now listen little papa

Well I'm at your big downfall

Cause there ain't no wheels on this ship

And we can't row row row

We can't row row row

We can't row

Row row row

Row row row

You use to like my lovin'

Because you liked my gold

Now ya don't want my lovin'

Cause there ain't no dough no more

And there ain't no wheels on this ship

And we can't row row row

We can't row row row

We can't row

Row row row

Row row row

Well I tell you for the last time

And I told you this before

If you want to keep your mama

Ya gotta love me more and more

Cause there ain't no wheels on this ship

And we can't row row row

We can't row row row

We can't row ©
