I used to be a farmer, and I made a living fine,
I had a little stretch of land along the CP line
But time went by and though I tried, the money wasn't there
And 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?", they'd always laugh, ",we just let twenty go!",
The government, the promised me a measly little sum
But I've got too much pride to end up just another bum.
Then I thought, who gives a damn if all the jobs are gone?
I'm gonna be a PIRATE on the river Saskatchewan!
(Arrr! Arrr! Arrr! Arrr! Arrr!) Cause it's a heaveStealin' wheat and barley and all the other grains
It's a hoWhen ya see the Jolly Roger on Regina's mighty shores Well, you'd think the local farmers would know that I'm at large
But just the other day I found an unprotected barge
I snuck up right behind them and they were none the wiser,
I rammed their ship and sank it and I stole their fertilizer!
A bridge outside of Moosejaw spans a mighty river
Farmers cross in so much fear their stomachs are aCause they know that TRACTOR JACK is hiding in the bay
I'll jump the bridge and knock them cold and sail off with their hay! Cause it's a heaveStealin' wheat and barley and all the other grains
It's a hoWhen ya see the Jolly Roger on Regina's mighty shores Well, Mountie Bob he chased me, he was always at my throat
He'd follow on the shoreline cause he didn't own a boat
But cutbacks were a-coming and the Mountie lost his.
