Yeah, no more beating around the bush, eh? So much for subtlety......
What bush? Or are you talking about the old days?
Depends on what/who's bush you're talking about. Present or past tense, whatever you want it to be!
So what's the consensus here about Mike knowing what the title meant? I say OF COURSE he knew what it meant! He's from California, ain't he?
Edit: Steve just weighed in and he got it from the horse's mouth, so there you go......
Have you heard? She's back in town
They say the man that she loved was messing around
That didn't please her
So she's starting all over again
She's got the situation well in hand
She's in no hurry for just any man
She ain't worried
She's a real sensation at taking care of what she needs
And she'll be rockin' the man in the boat (rockin' the man in the boat)
Rockin' the man in the boat (rockin' the man)
Humming and strumming the tune that she wrote
'Cause she'll be rockin' the man in the boat
Late at night she's all alone
Turn down the lights and unplug the phone
She's got the feeling
She's gonna start reeling it in
Some nights she's let me know
You know the cat's in the cradle, she's runnin' the show
Higher and higher, up and down and all around
Roller coaster out of control
And she'll be rockin' the man in the boat (rockin' the man in the boat)
Rockin' the man in the boat (rockin' the man)
Humming and strumming the tune that she wrote
'Cause she'll be rockin' the man in the boat
(Feels so good) Just like she knew it would
(Feels so fine) She's finally crossing over the line
I'm watching her day by day
Blow by blow and play by play
Telescope love
How long can I go on this way?
You know I'd love to lend a helping hand
You're such a good singer, let me join in your band
She don't need it, she's her own sensation
She don't need it, got a good vibration
She don't need it, be no imitation at taking care of what she needs
And she'll be rockin' the man in the boat (rockin' the man in the boat)
Rockin' the man in the boat (rockin' the man)
Humming and strumming the tune that she wrote
'Cause she'll be rockin' the man in the boat
Now, now, now, now
And she'll be rockin' the man in the boat (rockin' the man in the boat)
Rockin' the man in the boat (rockin' the man)
Humming and strumming the tune that she wrote
'Cause she'll be rockin' the man in the boat
(Rockin' the man in the boat) Rockin' the man in the boat
(Rockin' the man in the boat) Rockin' the man, yeah
Humming and strumming that tune that she wrote
Well, she'll be rockin' the man in the boat
