By eight o'clock
the bar is completely packed
with people from around the world
Everybody's talking about
where they're staying
and what they've seen
and the bar staff keep making runs
for more beer and liquor
After an hour people are swimming
in the river out back
And no no one brought
their swim trunks
A couple of the local b'ys get up
with their accordions and fiddles
and someone brings out
an ugly stick
Farewell to all you pretty ladies
Waving from the dock
Heave away me jollies heave away
And if we do return to you
We'll make your cradles rock
Heave away me jolly boys
We're all bound away
Farewell you Newfoundlander boys
You're leaving us alone
Heave away me jollies heave away
And if you find another
We've got lovers of our own
Heave away me jolly boys
We're all bound away
And then we get the karaoke going
Near Far
Wherever we are
Then we decide
to have a bit of a ceremony
Let's make these people
honorary Newfoundlanders
