letra de excursion around the bay - bodh'aktan

[verse 1]
well it was on this 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 took the gangway from the pier
i saw some fella haul me wife aboard as a volunteer

[chorus]
oh me, oh my, i heard me old wife cry
oh me, oh my, i think i’m gonna die!
oh me, oh my, i heard me old wife say
“i wish i’d never taken this excursion around the bay”

[verse 2]
we had full three hundred souls aboard, oh what a splendid sight!
dressed all in regimental to make our spirits bright
and meself being in the double, when a funny things they’d say
they choke themselves from laughing when they’d see us in the bay

[chorus]
oh me, oh my, i heard me old wife cry
oh me, oh my, i think i’m gonna die!
oh me, oh my, i heard me old wife say
“i wish i’d never taken this excursion around the bay”

[verse 3]
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 i said she’ll be a dandy when we reaches harbour grace!
[chorus]
oh me, oh my, i heard me old wife cry
oh me, oh my, i think i’m gonna die!
oh me, oh my, i heard me old wife say
“i wish i’d never taken this excursion around the bay”

[verse 4]
my wife she got no better, my wife me darling dear
the screeches from her gob you could hear in carbonear
i tried every place in harbour grace
tried every store and shop
to get her something for a cure or take her to the hop

[chorus]
oh me, oh my, i heard me old wife cry
oh me, oh my, i think i’m gonna die!
oh me, oh my, i heard me old wife say
“i wish i’d never taken this excursion around the bay”

[verse 5]
she died below the brandies as we were coming back
we buried her in the ocean, wrapped up in a union jack
so now i am a single man, in search of a pretty face
and the woman that says she’ll have me, i’m off for harbour grace!

[chorus]
oh me, oh my, i heard me old wife cry
oh me, oh my, i think i’m gonna die!
oh me, oh my, i heard me old wife say
“i wish i’d never taken this excursion around the bay”
