SINGER: Great Big Sea

SONG: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.
