Gumboot Cloggeroo Lyrics by Stompin’ Tom Connors

Dr. Stompin’ Tom... Eh?

1993

Oh, we sailed away at the break of
Day to pull traps in oilskin trousers
On the Suzy Jack but tonight we're
Back wit' a t'ousand pounds o' lobsters
Oh shanty town we're gonna tear ya down
I got me money comin' out of me stockin's
Tonight I'm due to 'Bushwhack' Sue
And take her to the gumboot cloggeroo
And we'll do a little gumboot cloggin'
Do a little gumboot cloggin'
There's Fish & Brewis and a quahog
Stew and a bo-hoo-owl of clam chowder
Just see me reach for that Newfie Screech
When they deedle up the fiddle jig louder
Hear the French girl sing, and the guitars ring
And the squeezebox skweek-a-dee squakin'
Me and my Sue are gonna "hoop de doo"
Take her to the Gumboot Cloggeroo
And we'll do a little gumboot cloggin'
Do a little gumboot cloggin'
There's "Boots" Bernard and the rough Richards
And the girls from way down Tracadie
How many "Blue Nosers" and "Herring Chokers"
We just don't know exactly
Pack 'em all in tight and we'll dance all night
Get the old barn floor just a-rockin'
I'll buy a ring dang doo for PEI Sue
Take her to the Gumboot Cloggeroo
And we'll do a little gumboot cloggin'
Do a little gumboot cloggin'
There's Fish & Brewis and a quahog
Stew and a bo-hoo-owl of clam chowder
Just see me reach for that Newfie Screech
When they deedle up the fiddle jig louder
Hear the French girl sing, and the guitars ring
And the squeezebox skweek-a-dee squakin'
Me and my Sue are gonna "hoop de doo"
Take her to the Gumboot Cloggeroo
And we'll do a little gumboot cloggin'
Do a little gumboot cloggin'
Oh we sailed away at the break o'
Day to pull traps in oilskin trousers
On the "Suzy Jack", but tonight we're back
With a t'ousand pounds o' lobsters
Oh shanty town, we're gonna tear you down
I got me money comin' out of me stockin's
Tonight I'm due to 'Bushwhack' Sue
Take her to the Gumboot Cloggeroo
And we'll do a little gumboot cloggin'
Do a little gumboot cloggin'
Take her to the Gumboot Cloggeroo
And we'll do a little gumboot cloggin'
Do a little gumboot cloggin'
Do a little gumboot cloggin'
Do a little gumboot cloggin'
