(No chord)
I'se the b'y that builds the boat and
I'se the b'y that sails her and
I'se the b'y that catches the fish and
Brings 'em home to Liza
Hip-yer-partner Sally Tibbo
Hip-yer-partner Sally Brown
Fogo, Twillingate, Morton's Harbour
All around the circle
Sods and rinds to cover your flake
Cake and tea for supper
Cod fish in the spring of the year
Fried in maggoty butter
Hip-yer-partner Sally Tibbo
Hip-yer-partner Sally Brown
Fogo, Twillingate, Morton's Harbour
All around the circle
I don't want your maggoty fish
They're no good for winter
Well I can buy as good as that
Way down in Bonavista!
Hip-yer-partner Sally Tibbo
Hip-yer-partner Sally Brown
Fogo, Twillingate, Morton's Harbour
All around the circle
I took Liza to a dance
As fast as she can travel
And every step that she could take
Was up to her knees in gravel
Hip-yer-partner Sally Tibbo
Hip-yer-partner Sally Brown
Fogo, Twillingate, Morton's Harbour
All around the circle
Susan White she's outta sight
Her petticoat wants a border
Well old Sam Oliver in the dark
(No chord)
He kissed her in the corner!
Hip-yer-partner Sally Tibbo
Hip-yer-partner Sally Brown
Fogo, Twillingate, Morton's Harbour
All around the circle
I'se the b'y that builds the boat and
I'se the b'y that sails her and
I'se the b'y that catches the fish and
Brings 'em home to Liza
