"Great Big Sea / Gone By The Board" lyrics
"Great Big Sea / Gone By The Board"
Great big sea hove in Long Beach
Whack fal-o-ral tad-dle did-dle i-do
Great big sea hove in Long Beach
Granny Snooks she lost her speech
To me right fol-di-dy fol-dee
Great big sea hove in the Harbour
Whack fal-o-ral tad-dle did-dle i-do
Great big sea hove in the Harbour
Hove right up to Keough's Parlour
To me right fol-di-dy fol-dee
Mother, dear I wants a sack
Whack fal-o-ral tad-dle did-dle i-do
Mother, dear I wants a sack
With beads and buttons all down me back
To me right fol-di-dy fol-dee
Me boot is broke, me frock is tore
Whack fal-o-ral tad-dle did-dle i-do
Boot is broke, me frock is tore
But Granny Snooks I do adore
To me right fol-di-dy fol-dee
Fish is gone and the flour is high
Whack fal-o-ral tad-dle did-dle i-do
Fish is gone and the flour is high
Granny Snooks she can't have I
To me right fol-di-dy fol-dee
She will have me in the fall
Whack fal-o-ral tad-dle did-dle i-do
If she don't I'll hoist my sail
Hove right up to old Canaille
To me right fol-di-dy fol-dee
Great big sea hove in Long Beach
Whack fal-o-ral tad-dle did-dle i-do
Great big sea hove in Long Beach
Granny Snooks she lost her speech
To me right fol-di-dy fol-dee

Barenaked Ladies - "It's All Been Done" I met you before the fall of Rome
And I begged you to let me take you home

Hedley - "Anything" (ha ha ha)
Everybody said, you better stay in school,
Get a real job, boy, don't be a fool,
Burn that guitar, you can never be a star,

A thousand disbelievers couldn't keep...
Old Crow Medicine Show - "Wagon Wheel" Headed down south to the land of the pines
I'm thumbin' my way to North Caroline
Starin' up the road

Flogging Molly - "Rebels Of The Sacred Heart" Now I'm aiming for Heaven
But probably wind up down in Hell
Where, upon this altar
I will hang my guilt-ridden head
