Well I used to be a farmer and I made a living fine
I had a little stretch of land along the Cp line
But times were tough and though I tried the money wasnt there
And the bankers came and took my land and told me fair is fair
I looked for every kind of job , the answer always no
Hire you now, theyd always laugh, we just let 20 go
The government, they promised me a measly little sum
But Ive got too much pride to end up just another bum
Then I thought who gives a damn if all the jobs are gone
Im gonna be a pirate
on the River Saskatchewan
And its a hee Ho ! Hi (Ho!)
Comin down the plains
Stealin wheat and barley and all the other grains
And its a Ho (Hey)! Hi (Hey)!
Farmers bar your doors
When you see the jolly roger on reginas mighty shores
