  Well, we're good old boys,  we come  from the North Shore,
  Drinkers  and carousers  the likes  you've never seen;
  And this night, by God!  We drank  till there was no more,
  From the Troller  to the Raven  with all  stops in between.
 Well it all  began one afternoon on the shores  of Ambleside,
 We were sittin' there quite peacefully with the rising  of the tide;
 When an idea it came to mind for to usher  in the Fall,
 So we all agreed next Friday night we'd go  out on the crawl.
  Well, we're good old boys,  we come  from the North Shore,
  Drinkers  and carousers  the likes  you've never seen;
  And this night, by God!  We drank  till there was no more,
  From the Troller  to the Raven  with all  stops in between.
 We planned  to have a gay old time, the cash  we did not spare,
 We left all the cars at home and paid  the taxi fare;
 I got out to Horseshoe Bay a little  after five,
 From a table in the corner I heard familiar  voices rise.
  Well, we're good old boys,  we come  from the North Shore,
  Drinkers  and carousers  the likes  you've never seen;
  And this night, by God!  We drank  till there was no more,
  From the Troller  to the Raven  with all  stops in between.
 The spirits  they ran high that night, old stories  we did share,
 Of the days when we were younger men and never  had a care;
 The beer flowed like a river and we drank  the keg near dry,
 So we drained down all our glasses and were thirsty  by-and-by.
  Well, we're good old boys,  we come  from the North Shore,
  Drinkers  and carousers  the likes  you've never seen;
  And this night, by God!  We drank  till there was no more,
  From the Troller  to the Raven  with all  stops in between.
 Park Royal  Hotel, The Rusty Gull, Square-Rigger  and Queen's Cross,
 We'd started out with eight good boys but half  had gotten lost;
 For you'll never keep the lads together when their eyes  begin to rove,
 So there was just the three of us that made  it to Deep Cove.
  Well, we're good old boys,  we come  from the North Shore,
  Drinkers  and carousers  the likes  you've never seen;
  And this night, by God!  We drank  till there was no more,
  From the Troller  to the Raven  with all  stops in between.
 We arrived  out at The Raven just in time  for the last call,
 The final destination of this the first  annual crawl;
 We dug deep  into our pockets there was no money  to be found,
 Nine miles home and for walking  we are bound.
