Lightly Row
This tune seems to appear in virtually every tutor book for every instrument so it's really well-known but I didn't realise for years that it's actually an old song! Verse 1 lends itself to doing rowing and gliding actions and verse 2 could have splashing and swimming actions. I've altered some of the words to make them more suitable for children.
- Lightly row, lightly row
- Over the glassy waves we go
- Smoothly glide, smoothly glide
- On the silent tide
- __
- Watch me splashing in the sea
- Swimming round so easily
- Then I float in our boat
- On the salty sea
