[C] Well, Johnny, you know, that's [N] a very good question.
Sometimes we put out the odd fire, but most of the time we just spend our time rescuing cats.
Any more questions?
Okay, that was Timmy's daddy.
Now let's find out what Mabel's daddy does for a living, okay?
Well, [C] I used to be a farmer and I made a living fine.
[Am] I had a little [C] stretch of [G] land along the seabed [C] line.
But times went by and though I tried, the money wasn't fair.
[Am] And the [C] bankers came and [G] took my land and told me fair [C] is fair.
[Am] I looked for every kind [D] of job, the answer always [Am] no.
Hire you now, [G] they'd always laugh, we'd just let 20 go.
[Am] The government, [G] they promised [D] me a measly little sum.
[Am] But I've got too much [G] pride to end up just another bum.
[Am] Then I thought, who gives a damn if all the [C] jobs are [D] gone?
I'm gonna be a pirate [G] on the River Saskatchewan.
And it's a [C] heave-ho, hi-ho, comin' down the [F] plain.
[C] Stealin' wheat and [G] barley and all the other [C] grains.
And it's a ho, hey, hi, hey, farmers by your door.
When you see the golly, [G] rush around, your [C] vagina's wide.
[F] [C] [G] [C]
[G] [C] Well, you'd think the local [Dm] farmers would [C] know that I'm enlarged.
But just the other [G] day I found an unprotected [C] barge.
Snuck up right behind them and they were none the wiser.
I ran the ship and [G] sank it and I [C] stole the [A] virginizer.
Bridge on side a [D] moose, star-spangled mighty [A] river.
Farmers mustn't [G] do much fear, their stomachs are a [Am] quiver.
Cause they know the [D] captive track is hidin' in the [A] bay.
I'll jump that bridge and [G] knock them cold and seal them with the hay.
[C] And it's a heave-ho, hi-ho, [C] comin' down the plain.
Stealin' wheat and [G] barley and all the other grains.

Well, Mount Zimbabwe [G] chased me, he was [C] always at my throat.
He bought on the [G] shoreline cause he didn't own a [C] boat.
But the cutbacks were uncommon and the mountain lost its job.
So now he's sailing [G] with me and we [C] call him [A] Zanzibar.
Swingin' soldiers, [D] cuttin' bones, unpleasant company.
[A] I never pay [G] my income taxes through the [A] GST.
Sailing down to [D] Saskatoon, the terror of the sea.
If you [G] wanna reach the co-op, boy, you gotta get by me.

And you're gonna lose your [G] Stetson if you [C] have to pass [Am] away.
Well, winter is [D] a-comin' and the chill is in the [Am] breeze.
My pirate days [G] are over once the river starts to [A] freeze.
I'll be back in [D] springtime, but now I have to [A] go.
