Artist/Band: Stompin Tom Connors
Lyrics for Song: Gumboot Cloggeroo
Lyrics for Album: Souvenirs: 25 Of The Best [2000]



We sailed away at the break of day to pull traps in oilskin trousers

On the Suzy Jack but we're back tonight wit a thousand pounds of lobsters

Oh shanty town were gonna tear ya down

I got money comin' out of me stockin's

Tonight I'm due to bushwhack Sue

And take her to the gumboot cloggeroo

And we'll do a little gumboot cloggin'

Do a little gumboot cloggin'



There's fish and brewis and a quahog stew and a bowl of clam chowder

Just see me reach for that Newfie Screech

when they deedle up the fiddle jig louder

Hear the french girl sing, and the guitars ring

and the squeezebox skweek-a-dee squakin'

Me and my Sue are gonna "hoop de doo"

take her to the Gumboot Cloggeroo

And we'll do a little gumboot cloggin'

Do a little gumboot cloggin'



There's "Boots" Bernard and the rough Richards

and the girls from way down Tracadie

How many "blue nosers" and "herring chokers"

we just don't know exactly

Pack 'em all in tight and we'll dance all night,

get the old barn floor just a-rockin'

I'll buy a ring dang doo for PEI Sue,

take her to the Gumboot Cloggeroo

And we'll do a little gumboot cloggin'

Do a little gumboot cloggin'



Oh we sailed away at the break o' day to pull traps in oilskin trousers

On the "Suzy Jack", but tonight we're back

with a thousand pounds of lobsters

Oh shanty town, we're gonna tear you down

I got the money comin' out of me stockin's

Tonight I'm due to bushwhack Sue,

take her to the Gumboot Cloggeroo

And we'll do a little gumboot cloggin'

Do a little gumboot cloggin'



There's fish and brewis and a quahog stew

and a bowl of clam chowder

Just see me reach for that Newfie Screech

when they deedle up the fiddle jig louder

Hear the french girl sing, and the guitars ring

and the squeezebox skweek-a-dee squakin'

Me and my Sue are gonna "hoop de doo"

take her to the Gumboot Cloggeroo

And we'll do a little gumboot cloggin'

Do a little gumboot cloggin'
