Lyrics
- Three young men all at sea
You and I, and likewise he
Drifting on the ocean wide
Carried by the tide
Going somewhere don’t know where
We don’t know, and we don’t care
Waves below and stars above
We’re out at sea and deep in love
Three nice young men
Refrain
Three very nice young men
All in the same little boat
Only the stars will twinkle brightly
Guiding us on through the night
Plunk on the light guitar
Idly we drift and float at sea
But don’t care where we are
We’re all in the same little boat
- Three young men all at sea
Lost for all eternity
Tossing on the angry foam
Looking for a home
Never been in love before
Hunting for a friendly shore
Where we can drop anchor soon
And find a happy honeymoon
Three nice young men
