Excursion Around the Bay

	作词 : Traditional
	Well it was on this monday morning
	And the day be calm and fine
	A harbour grace excursion
	With the boys who had the time
	And just before the sailor
	Took the gangway from the pier
	I saw some fellow 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"
	We had fourteen hundred souls aboard, oh what a splendid sight!
	Left stong and 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,br> [Chorus]
	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]
	My wife she got no better, my wife me darling dear
	The screeches from her trollear 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]
	She died below the brandy's 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!,br> [Chorus]
