lirik lagu stompin tom – big joe mufferaw
hee hi hee hi ho
the best man in ottawa was m-fferaw joe
m-fferaw joe.
big joe m-fferaw
paddled into mattawa
all the way from ottawa in just one day-hey hey-
on the river ottawa
the best man we ever saw
was big joe m-fferaw the old folks say
come listen and i’ll tell ya what the old folks say…
yeah they say big joe had an old pet frog
bigger than a horse and he barked like a dog-
and the only thing quicker than a train upon a track
was big joe ridin’ on the bullfrog’s back
hee hi hee hi ho
the best man in ottawa was m-fferaw joe
m-fferaw joe.
yeah they said big joe used to get real wet
from cuttin’ down timber and workin’ up a sweat
and everyone’ll tell ya around carlton place
the mississippi dripped off of big joe’s face.
hee hi hee hi ho
the best man in ottawa was m-fferaw joe
m-fferaw joe.
now joe had to portage from the gatineau down
to see a little girl he had in kempville town
he was back and forth so many times to see that gal
the path he wore became the rideau c-n-l
hee hi hee hi ho
the best man in ottawa was m-fferaw joe
m-fferaw joe.
big joe m-fferaw
paddled into mattawa
all the way from ottawa in just one day-hey hey-
on the river ottawa
the best man we ever saw
was big joe m-fferaw the old folks say
come listen and i’ll tell ya what the old folks say…
they say big joe put out a forest fire
halfway between renfrew and old arnprior
he was 50 miles away down around smith falls
when he drowned out the fire with 5 spit b-lls.
hee hi hee hi ho
the best man in ottawa was m-fferaw joe
m-fferaw joe.
well he jumped in the calabogie lake real fast
and he swam both ways to catch a cross-eyed b-ss.
but he threw it on the ground & said “i can’t eat that”
so he covered it over with mount st.pat
hee hi hee hi ho
the best man in ottawa was m-fferaw joe
m-fferaw joe.
yeah they say big joe drank a bucket of gin
then he beat the livin’ tar out of 29 men-
and high on the ceiling of a pembroke club
there’s 29 boot marks and they’re signed “with love”.
hee hi hee hi ho
the best man in ottawa was m-fferaw joe
m-fferaw joe.
big joe m-fferaw
paddled into mattawa
all the way from ottawa in just one day-hey hey-
on the river ottawa
the best man we ever saw
was big joe m-fferaw the old folks say
come listen and i’ll tell ya what the old folks say…
they say
hee hi hee hi ho
the best man in ottawa was m-fferaw joe
m-fferaw joe.
big joe m-fferaw. big joe m-fferaw
big joe m-fferaw. big joe m-fferaw
