Smuid, faca sibh am bata Have you seen the boat?
Smuid am bata smuid The steam boat
Smuid, faca sibh am bata Have you seen the boat?
Faca sibh am bata, am bata smuid Have you seen the boat, the steam boat?
   
Sgioabair aig cuibhle bhata smuid Skipper at the wheel of the steam boat
Sgioabair aig cuibhle bhata smuid Skipper at the wheel of the steam boat
Sgioabair aig cuibhle bhata smuid Skipper at the wheel of the steam boat
Seideadh na dudaig, dood, dood Blowing the horn, toot, toot
   
Saoil co th'air bord a bhata smuid I wonder who's on board the steam boat
Saoil co th'air bord a bhata smuid I wonder who's on board the steam boat
Saoil co th'air bord a bhata smuid I wonder who's on board the steam boat
Laraidhean is caraidhean, dood, dood Lorries and cars, toot, toot
   
Sios is suas 's an uisge, woo, woo Down and up the water, woo, woo
Sios is suas 's an uisge, woo, woo Down and up the water, woo, woo
Sios is suas 's an uisge, woo, woo Down and up the water, woo, woo
A' treabhadh a chuain am bata smuid Plowing the ocean, the steam boat
   
Seo i tighinn gu cala, dood, dood Here she comes to anchor, toot, toot
Seo i tighinn gu cala, dood, dood Here she comes to anchor, toot, toot
Seo i tighinn gu cala, dood, dood Here she comes to anchor, toot, toot
Seo i tighinn gu cala, am bata smuid Here she comes to anchor, the steam boat
