Back this hitch up into the water Untie all the cables and rope Step onto the AstroTurf Get yourself a coozie Let's go Who said anything about skiin'? Floatin' is all I wanna do You can climb the ladder Just don't rock the boat while I barbeque On the pontoon Makin' waves and catchin' rays up on the roof Jumpin' out the back, don't act like you don't want to Party in slow motion Out here in the open Mm, motorboatin' (Hoo hoo hoo) Reach your hand down into the cooler Don't drink it if the mountains aren't blue Try to keep it steady as you recline on your black inner tube Pontoon Makin' waves and catchin' rays up on the roof Jumpin' out the back, don't act like you don't want to Party in slow motion Out here in the open Mm, motorboatin' (Hoo hoo hoo) (Hoo hoo hoo) Five mile an hour with aluminum side Wood panelin' with a water slide Can't beat the heat, so let's take a ride On the pontoon Makin' waves and catchin' rays up on the roof Jumpin' out the back, don't act like you don't want to Party in slow motion I'm out here in the open Mm, motorboatin' On the pontoon (Hoo hoo hoo) On the pontoon (Hoo hoo hoo) Back this hitch out into the water On the pontoon (Hoo hoo hoo) (Hoo hoo hoo)
