The Coal Boat Song — текст песни (Stompin Tom)





I left Cape Breton on a coal boat
for St. John`s, Newfoundland
And I met a little girl named Sally
And I took her by the little white hand.
She shook her little head and said no way,Fred.
I won`t go along with your plan.
You`ve been workin` on the coal boat b`y
And yer nothin` but a dirty old man.
You`ve been workin` on the coal boat b`y
And yer nothin` but a dirty old man.
Spoken: Well, I had to think of somethin` real fast, ya know.
Yeah, well I`m gonna quit the dirty coal boat.
I wanna live in Newfoundland.
I`ll buy a suit and get married
Put a ring upon yer little white hand.
She nodded her head and said OK Fred.
Sally went along with the plan
But..
I`m still workin` on the coal boat b`y
And I`m nuthin` but a dirty old man.
I`m still workin` on the coal boat b`y
And I`m nuthin` but a dirty old man.
It was some time later on the coal boat
I got a little letter from home.
Sally said Freddie was a good boy
But the little bugger wanted to roam.
She said It`s too bad he`s got you for a dad
And I hope that ya feel real grand.
He`s gone workin` on the coal boat b`y
To be just like his dirty old man.
He`s gone workin` on the coal boat b`y
To be just like his dirty old man.
Well I left Cape Breton on the coal boat
For St. John`s, Newfoundland
And good old Sally was a waitin`
And I took her by her little white hand.
She shook her little head and said No way Fred.
I won`t go along with yer plan.
You ain`t gonna quit the coal boat b`y
Cause I love you. Ya dirty old man.
So come all young fellas on the coal boat,
I hope yer gonna understand.
If ya got a pretty little girlfriend
And ya take her by the little white hand.
If she turns her back and says No way Jack.
I won`t go along with yer plan.
Just keep workin` on the coal boat b`y
If ya wa wants to be a dirty old man.
Just keep workin` on the coal boat b`y
And you`ll be nothin` but a dirty old man.
