lirik lagu derina harvey band - the last saskatchewan pirate
[verse 1]
oh, i used to be a farmer and i made a living fine
i had a little stretch of land along the cp line
but times were hard and though i tried, the money wasn’t there
and bankers came and took my land and told me fair is fair
i looked for every kind of job, the answer always “no”
hire you now, they’d always laugh, we just let twenty go!
the government, they promised me a measly little sum
but i’ve got too much pride to end up just another bum
[perchorus]
then i thought who gives a d~mn if all the jobs are gone
i’m gonna be a pirate! on the river saskatchewan!
(arr! arr! arr!)
[chorus]
cause it’s a heave~ho! hi~ho!
coming down the plains
stealing wheat and barley and all the other grains
and it’s a ho~hey! hi~hey!
farmers bar your doors
when you see the jolly roger on regina’s mighty shores
arr!
[verse 2]
well you think the locals farmers would know that i’m at large
but, just the other day i saw an unprotected barge
i snuck up right behind them and they were none the wiser
i rammed their ship, and sank it, and i stole their fertilizer!
a bridge outside of moose jaw spans a mighty river
the farmers pass in so much fear, their stomachs are a~quiver
because the know that tractor jack! is waiting in the bay
i’ll jump the bridge and knock them cold and sail off with their hay!
[chorus]
cause it’s a heave~ho! hi~ho!
coming down the plains
stealing wheat and barley and all the other grains
and it’s a ho~hey! hi~hey!
farmers bar your doors
when you see the jolly roger on regina’s mighty shores
arr!
[verse 3]
well mountie bob he chased me, he was always at my throat
he’d follow on the shoreline because he didn’t own a boat
but cutbacks were a~coming and the mountie lost his job
now he’s sailing with me and we call him salty bob
a swingin’ sword, and skull n’ bones, and pleasant company
i never pay my income tax and screw the gst — screw it!
prince albert down to saskatoon, i’m the terror of the sea
if ya wanna reach the co~op, boy, you gotta get by me!
[chorus]
cause it’s a heave~ho! hi~ho!
coming down the plains
stealing wheat and barley and all the other grains
and it’s a ho~hey! hi~hey!
farmers bar your doors
when you see the jolly roger on regina’s mighty shores
arr!
[verse 4]
well, pirate life’s appealing, but you don’t just find it here
i’ve heard that in alberta, there’s a band of buccaneers
they roam the athabasca, from smith to fort mckay
and you’re gonna lose your stetson if you have to pass their way
well winter is a~coming and a chill is in the breeze
our pirate days are over once the river starts to freeze
i’ll be back in springtime, but now i’ve to go
i hear there’s lots of plundering down in new mexico!
[chorus]
cause it’s a heave~ho! hi~ho!
coming down the plains
stealing wheat and barley and all the other grains
and it’s a ho~hey! hi~hey!
farmers bar your doors
when you see the jolly roger on regina’s mighty shores
(lalalalalalalala)
[chorus]
cause it’s a heave~ho! hi~ho!
coming down the plains
stealing wheat and barley and all the other grains
and it’s a ho~hey! hi~hey!
farmers bar your doors
when you see the jolly roger on regina’s mighty shores
it’s a heave~ho! hi~ho!
coming down the plains
stealing wheat and barley and all the other grains
and it’s a ho~hey! hi~hey!
farmers bar your doors
when you see the jolly roger on regina’s mighty shores
see the jolly roger on regina’s mighty shores
see the jolly roger on regina’s mighty shores
