lirik lagu excursion around the bay – the kreellers
it was on monday morning, and the day be calm and fine
to the harbour grace excursion, with the boys to have a time;
and just before the sailor pulled the gangway from the pier
i saw some fella haul me wife on board of the volunteer
chorus:
o me, o my, i heard the old wife cry
o me, o my, i think i’m gonna die;
o me, o my, i heard me old wife say
i wish i’d never taken this excursion around the bay
we had three hundred souls on board, oh what a splendid sight
matt strong in regimentals, to make our spirits bright;
with meself being in the double, with the funny things they’d say
and they’d choke themselves from laughing, when they see us in the bay
chorus:
o me, o my, i heard the old wife cry
o me, o my, i think i’m gonna die;
o me, o my, i heard me old wife say
i wish i’d never taken this excursion around the bay
now, me wife she got no better, she turned a sickly green
i fed her cake and candy, fat pork and kerosene;
castor*oil and sugar of candy, i rubbed pure*oil on her face
and they said she’d be a dandy, when she reaches harbour grace
chorus:
o me, o my, i heard the old wife cry
o me, o my, i think i’m gonna die;
o me, o my, i heard me old wife say
i wish i’d never taken this excursion around the bay
my wife she got no better, my wife, my darling dear
her screeches went right through me, you could hear in carbonear;
i searched every place in harbour grace, searched every store and shop
to get her something for the cure, or take her to the hop
chorus:
o me, o my, i heard the old wife cry
o me, o my, i think i’m gonna die;
o me, o my, i heard me old wife say
i wish i’d never taken this excursion around the bay
oh, she died below the brandies, as we were coming back
we buried her in the ocean, wrapped up in the union jack;
and now i am a single man, in search of a pretty face
and the woman who says she’ll have me, sure i’m off for harbour grace
chorus:
o me, o my, i heard the old wife cry
o me, o my, i think i’m gonna die;
o me, o my, i heard me old wife say
i wish i’d never taken this excursion around the bay
o me, o my, i heard the old wife cry
o me, o my, i think i’m gonna die;
o me, o my, i heard me old wife say
i wish i’d never taken this excursion around the bay
do it again!
o me, o my, i heard the old wife cry
o me, o my, i think i’m gonna die;
o me, o my, i heard me old wife say
i wish i’d never taken this excursion around the bay
