Ah, well come gather all around me
There is something you should know There is no place quite like this place If we get it on the go So, pile your boots up in the corner Hang your jacket from the door There's thirty people in the kitchen And there's always room for more Chorus: oh-oh-oh, Come on now Let's lock the world outside oh-oh-oh, Come on I tell you now She's goin' up tonight Well there'll be music all around you You should see the way it feels Come on off we go now Heel to toe now To the jigs and reels 'Cause somebody's got a fiddle And someone else bought a guitar and we got Bobby on the squeezebox Grab a chair and raise a jar Chorus Well there'll be smilin', there'll be laughin' Well that's good enough for me There'll be dancin' all around you This is where you want to be So pile your boots up in the corner Hang your jacket from the door There's thirty people in the kitchen And there's always room, yes there's always room... Chorus (2X) She's goin' up tonight. |

From the first hello you gave to me
I've done nothing else but smile And I know you're in a hurry but its gonna take a while. So forgive me if we go slow, but there's something I think you should know... Chorus: I'm goin fast as I can, please don't make me rush this feeling's coming on way too fast I'll tell you all of the things that you'll never forget But I'm not ready say, "I love you" yet I'm not ready to say "I love you" yet. -- Whistle Solo Don't push me in too deep, I've always been the fool who rushes in. You've got to take the pieces one-by-one before you've got everything. So forgive me if we take time but there's something that's been on my mind... Chorus -- Whistle Solo Oh! There'll be times when I'm mistaken there'll be times when we're gonna fight but you needn't doubt we can work it out and in time we'll get it right. So forgive me if we go slow but there's something I think you should know... Chorus x 2 -- Whistle Solo |

I'm sorry if I ruined your day
I really hope that you understand I'm a million miles away Looking for a place to land My father phoned me yesterday Your time has come, well done my son Tried to think of what to say When words came he'd already gone Chorus: I don't know how I got here There must be something to it I think I need some time alone To work my way through it The moon is in the sky tonight Not very warm but it sheds some light Ask me now and I just might Let the morning come and tell me if its right Chorus Soon initial bliss will pass This precious time might be your last Like dew upon the morning grass, Good intentions can vanish with the sun I'm sorry if I ruined your day I really hope that you understand But I'm a million miles away Looking for a place to land Well I'm a million miles away Looking for a place to land |

I stayed awake for hours again last night
Searchin' for a reason to keep up the fight I've made choices I'll regret I've got problems I don't get I didn't wanna carry the heavier load You can't always take the middle road There comes a time when you make up your mind And the point gets left behind (Chorus) Let's wait one more day for the conversation One more day to make it right Let's get away from the confrontation One more day just buying time For years and years you can drift along And write another verse to an endless song Wait one more day til the time is right Hopin' that you both see the light You won't see the light Chorus I'm not afraid to be alone I'm not afraid to be alone I stayed awake for hours again last night Searchin' for a reasong to keep up the fight I've made choices I don't regret I've got problems and problems and problems Chorus Just buying time (X2) |

I drank 16 doubles for the price of one
tryin to find the courage to talk to one I asked her for a dance, not a second glance my night had just begun Well I'd drink to the father or the holy ghost i'm kneeling at the alter of my nightly post so I'll raise a glass, not the first or last come join me in this toast Chorus because the old black rum's got a hold on me like a dog wrapped 'round my leg and the old black rum's got a hold on me will I live for another day(heyyyyy)will I live for another day Well the queen of George Street just went walkin' on by walkin' on by with some guy who don't care that she stood in line since half past nine and spent three hours on her hair (aahh) Her friend is lookin' at me with an evil grin I think a bloody racket might soon begin I must have said something to the George Street queen her boys are joining in. Chorus So I drank all of my money and I slept out in the rain Everyday is different, but the nights they're all the same You never see the sun on the old black rum but I know I'm gonna do it again. Chorus x2 will I live for another day |

Oh me name Able Rogers a share man am I
On a three-masted scooner from Twilingate Isle I've been the world over North, South, East and West But the middle of nowhere's where I likes it best Where it's wave over wave sea over bow I'm as happy a man as the sea will allow There's no other life for a sailor like me Than to sail the salt sea boys to sail the sea There's no other life but to sail the salt sea Well I leave my wife lonely ten months of the year For she built me a home and raised my children there She never come out to bid farewell to me Or can why a sailor must sail the salt sea Where it's wave over wave sea over bow I'm as happy a man as the sea will allow There's no other life for a sailor like me Than to sail the salt sea boys to sail the sea There's no other life but to sail the salt sea Oh the work it is hard and the hours are long But my spirit is willing my back it is strong And when the works over the whisky will pour We'll dance with the girls upon some foreign shore I've sailed the world over for decades or more And oft times I wonder what I do it for I don't know the answer it's pleasure and pain But with life to live over I'd do it again Where it's wave over wave sea over bow I'm as happy a man as the sea will allow There's no other life for a sailor like me Than to sail the salt sea boys to sail the sea Where it's wave over wave sea over bow I'm as happy a man as the sea will allow There's no other life for a sailor like me Than to sail the salt sea boys to sail the sea There's no other life but to sail the salt sea Ohh ohhhh |

I left my home and my family by the ocean
Out on my own, to seek my fortune But there is no work to occupy these young hands So look out boy you're heading for the mainland (Chorus) What do you do? You can't make nothing out of nothing Everbody needs a start What do you do? You can't make nothing out of nothing Give my country back it's heart. Well, I was born on a St.John's street Where all my hopes could meet with defeat I hide my fear in higher education Now I am so smart I could rule this content-nation Chorus Now I'm alone but I'm working everyday I'm getting stoned and I'm blowing all my pay Just to survive I'll do whatever I can Now, I'm alive, but how can I be a real man? Chorus |

CHORUS
Oh, won't you come along with me, love. Come along with me. Come for the night, and be my wife. Yeah, come along with me. Hey! Well, it is of a jolly butcher, as you might plainly see. As he rode on out one moring, in search of company. He went into a tavern, and a fair girl he did see, Aw, come for the night. Be my wife. Just come along with me. He called for the girl of the best, And he made such fortune plain. Come have a drink, and I'll make us think That it is our wedding day. CHORUS Well, he called for a candle, to light their way to bed. And when he had her in the room, these words to her he said: "A soverign I will give to you, for to embrace your charms." And all that night that fair young maid, lied in the butcher's arms. CHORUS Aw, early the nest morning, the butcher went his way He looked unto that fair young maid, and unto her did say: "That soverign that I gave to you, now do not think me strange, but that soverign that I gave to you, Will you give me back me back me change?" CHORUS Have a dance! CHORUS Well, about a twelve months later He rode on out once more And he went into the tavern, that he'd often been before He wasn't in there very long, when his fair maid he did see She brought forth a baby, three months old And placed it on his knee Aw, when he saw the baby He began to curse and swear And he said unto that fair young maid: "Why did you bring him here?" "Well, he's your own, kind sir!" She said "Do not think me strage." "Well, that soverign that you gave to me," "I gives you back your change!" CHORUS X2 |
