_ _ _ [C] _ _ Well, Johnny, you know, that's [N] a very good question.
Sometimes we put out the odd fire, but most of the time we just spend our time rescuing cats.
Any more questions? _ _ _ _ _
Okay, that was Timmy's daddy.
Now let's find out what Mabel's daddy does for a living, okay? _
_ _ _ Well, [C] I used to be a farmer and I made a living fine.
[Am] I had a little [C] stretch of [G] land along the seabed [C] line.
But times went by and though I tried, the money wasn't fair.
[Am] And the [C] bankers came and [G] took my land and told me fair [C] is fair.
[Am] I looked for every kind [D] of job, the answer always [Am] no.
Hire you now, [G] they'd always laugh, we'd just let 20 go.
[Am] The government, [G] they promised [D] me a measly little sum.
[Am] But I've got too much [G] pride to end up just another bum.
[Am] Then I thought, who gives a damn if all the [C] jobs are [D] gone?
I'm gonna be a pirate [G] on the River _ Saskatchewan.
_ And it's a [C] heave-ho, hi-ho, comin' down the [F] plain.
[C] Stealin' wheat and [G] barley and all the other [C] grains.
And it's a ho, hey, hi, hey, farmers by your door.
When you see the golly, [G] rush around, your [C] vagina's wide.
[F] _ [C] _ [G] _ [C] _ _ _
[G] _ [C] _ _ _ _ Well, you'd think the local [Dm] farmers would [C] know that I'm enlarged.
But just the other [G] day I found an unprotected [C] barge.
Snuck up right behind them and they were none the wiser.
I ran the ship and [G] sank it and I [C] stole the [A] virginizer.
Bridge on side a [D] moose, star-spangled mighty [A] river.
Farmers mustn't [G] do much fear, their stomachs are a [Am] quiver.
Cause they know the [D] captive track is hidin' in the [A] bay.
I'll jump that bridge and [G] knock them cold and seal them with the hay.
[C] And it's a heave-ho, hi-ho, [C] comin' down the plain.
Stealin' wheat and [G] barley and all the other grains.
And it's [C] a ho, hey, hi, hey, farmers by your door.
When you see the golly, [G] rush around, your [C] vagina's wide.
[F] _ [C] _ [G] _ [C] _ [F] _ [C] _ [G] _ [C] _
_ _ _ Well, Mount Zimbabwe [G] chased me, he was [C] always at my throat.
He bought on the [G] shoreline cause he didn't own a [C] boat.
But the cutbacks were uncommon and the mountain lost its job.
So now he's sailing [G] with me and we [C] call him [A] Zanzibar.
Swingin' soldiers, [D] cuttin' bones, unpleasant company.
[A] I never pay [G] my income taxes through the [A] GST.
Sailing down to [D] Saskatoon, the terror of the sea.
If you [G] wanna reach the co-op, boy, you gotta get by me.
And it's a [C] heave-ho, hi-ho, comin' down the plain.
Stealin' wheat and [G] barley and all the other grains.
And it's a [C] ho, hey, hi, hey, farmers by [F] your door.
When you [C] see the golly, [G] rush around, your [C] vagina's wide.
Well, _
[G] _ [C] _ [F] _ [C] _ [G] _ [C] _ _ _
_ the pirate life's appealing, but you don't just find it here.
I hear in North [G] Alberta there's a band of fuckin' [C] heres.
They roam the Athabasca, I'm Smith and Ward-McKay.
And you're gonna lose your [G] Stetson if you [C] have to pass [Am] away.
Well, winter is [D] a-comin' and the chill is in the [Am] breeze.
My pirate days [G] are over once the river starts to [A] freeze.
I'll be back in [D] springtime, but now I have to [A] go.
I hear there's lots of [G] plundering down in New Mexico.
[C] And it's a heave-ho, hi-ho, comin' down the plain.
Stealin' wheat and [G] barley and all the other [C] grains.
And it's a ho, hey, hi, hey, farmers by [F] your door.
When you [C] see the golly, [G] rush around, your [C] vagina's wide.
And it's a heave-ho, [N] hi-ho, comin' down the plain.
Stealin' wheat and barley and all the other grains.
And it's a ho, hey, hi, hey, farmers by your door.
When you see the golly, rush around, your vagina's wide.
[G] And _ _ it's a [C] heave-ho, hi-ho, comin' down the [F] plain.
[C] Stealin' wheat [G] and barley and all the other grains.
And it's a [C] ho, hey, hi, hey, farmers by your door.
When you see the golly, [G] rush around, [C] your vagina's wide
[F] When you [C] see the golly, [G] rush around, [C] your vagina's wide
[F] When you see [C] the Jolly Roger [G] on Regina's [C] mighty shows.
_ Ha ha ha.
_ _ _ _ [C#] Surgical tape.
Electrical tape.
Video tape.
Tape worm.
That's a bad one.
