Well it was on this Monday morning and the day be coming fine
To the Harbour Grace excursion with the boys to have a time
And just before the sailor to the gangway from the pier
I saw some fellow huddle me wife aboard to volunteer
Oh me, oh my, I heard the old wife cry
Oh me, oh my, I think I'm gonna die
Oh [C#m] me, oh my, I heard the old wife say
I wish I'd never taken this excursion around the [E] bay
How he ate well three hundred souls aboard, oh what a splendid [B] sight
A strong and rich man, [A] full to make his [E] spirits bright
Missed out in the double [A] from the funny [F#] things he'd say
[A] He'd joke them [B] fellows were laughing when they'd see us in the bay
[E] Oh me, oh my, I heard the old wife cry
[B] Oh me, oh [E] my, I think I'm gonna die
Oh me, oh my, [A] I heard [E] the old wife say
[A] I wish I'd [B] never taken this excursion [E] around the bay
Me wife she got no better, she turned a sippy [B] green
Better cake and [A] candy, but pork and [E] kerosene
Easter oil and sugar, rock candy, rookie oil on her face
[A] I say she'd [B] be a dandy when we reach the Harbour Grace
Oh me, [E] oh my, I heard the old wife cry
[B] Oh me, oh [A] my, I think I'm [E] gonna die

[E]
Me wife she got no better, me wife's me darling dear
[B] Sweet turd from a troll [E] ear, good ear and cabernet
Tried every place at Harbour Grace, tried every store and shop
To get her a [B] Sunday for her door, take her to [E] the hospital
Oh me, oh my, I heard the old wife cry

She thought he'd learn the brand, so he was coming back
