 C  C/B    G        C     C/B     G 
If I had a boat, I'd go out on the ocean 
    C   C/B    G         C/E          D/F#    
And if I had a pony, I'd ride him on my boat       (this first 'verse' 
    C      C/B     G      C     C/B    G           turns out to be 
And we could all together, go out on the ocean        the Chorus) 
     G         D/F#        G 
Just me upon my pony on my boat 


    G                          C   C/B       G 
And if I were Roy Rogers, I'd sure enough be single 
            G                           D/F#    
I couldn't bring myself to marryin' old Dale 
      G                             C     C/B          G 
It'd just be me & Trigger; we'd go ridin' through them movies 
          G            D/F#    
And we'd buy a boat and on the sea we'd sail 

  (Chorus) 

Well, the mystery masked man was smart, he got himself a Tonto 
Cuz Tonto did the dirty work for free 
But Tonto, he was smarter, and one day said Kemosabe 
You can kiss my    , I bought a boat, I'm headed out to sea 

  (Chorus) 

(Instrumental break) 

And if I were like light'ning, I wouldn't need no sneakers 
Well, I'd come and go whenever I would please 
And I'd scare 'em by the shady tree, 'n scare 'em by the light pole 
But I would not scare my pony on my boat out on the sea 

  (Chorus) 

     G          D/F#       G   C G D G 
Just me upon my pony on my boat
