Sharon, Lois & Bram - Newfoundland Jig Medley lyrics

Artist: Sharon, Lois & Bram

album: Everybody Sing!


Lots of fish in Bonavist Harbour
Lots of fish right in around here
Boys and girls are fishin' together
45 from Carbonear
Oh, catch ahold this one, catch ahold that one
Swing around this one, dance around she
Dance around this one, dance around that one
Diddle-dum this one, diddle-dum-dee
Oh, Uncle George got up in the morning
He got up in a wonderful tear
He ripped the seat right out of his britches
Now he's got ne'er pair to wear
Oh, catch ahold this one, catch ahold that one
Swing around this one, dance around she
Dance ahold this one, dance ahold that one
Diddle-dum this one, diddle-dum-dee
You may talk of Clara Nolan's ball or anything you choose
But it wouldn't hold a snuff-box to the spree at Kelligrews
If you want your eyeballs straightened, come out next week with me
And you'll have to wear your glasses at the Kelligrews Soiree
There was birch rine, tar twine, cherry wine and turpentine
Jowls and cavalances, ginger beer and tea
Pig's feet, cat's meat, dumplings boiled in a sheet
Dandelion and crackies' teeth at the Kelligrews Soiree
Oh, I'se The B'y that builds the boat and
I'se The B'y that sails her and
I'se The B'y that catches the fish and
Brings 'em home to Liza
Hip-yer-partner Sally Thibault
Hip-yer-partner Sally Brown
Fogo, Twillingate, Morton's Harbour
All around the circle
Well Susan White she's outta sight
Her petticoat wants a border
Old Sam Oliver in the dark
He kissed her in the corner
Hip-yer-partner Sally Thibault
Hip-yer-partner Sally Brown
Fogo, Twillingate, Morton's Harbour
All around the circle
Yes I'se The B'y that builds the boat and
I'se The B'y that sails her and
I'se The B'y that catches the fish and
Brings 'em home to Liza
Hip-yer-partner Sally Thibault
Hip-yer-partner Sally Brown
Fogo, Twillingate, Morton's Harbour
All around the circle
And I tell you, boys, we had a time at the Kelligrews Soiree
