Lyrics The Last Saskatchewan Pirate

Well I used to be a farmer and I made a livin' fine

I had a little stretch of land along the CP line

But times went by and though I tried the money wasn't 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

They always laughed

We just let twenty go

The government they 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

And it's a Heave

Comin' down the plains

Stealin' wheat and barley and all the other grains

And it's a Ho

Farmers bar your doors

When you see the Jolly Rodger on Regina's mighty shores

Well you 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 the ship and sank it and I stole the fertilizer

Bridge outside of Moose Jaw spans the mighty river

Farmers cross with so much fear their stomach are a-quiver

'Cos they know that Captain Tractor's hidin' in the bay

I'll jump the bridge and knock 'em cold and sail off with their hay

And it's a Heave

Comin' down the plains

Stealin' wheat and barley and all the other grains

And it's a Ho

Farmers bar your doors

When you see the Jolly Rodger on Regina's mighty shores

Well Mountie Bob he chased me

He was always at my throat

He followed on the shore lines 'cos he didn't own a boat

But the cutbacks were comin' and the Mountie lost his job

So now he's sailin' with me and we call him Salty Bob

A swingin' sword and skull and bones and pleasant company

I never pay my income tax and screw the GST

Sailin' down to Saskatoon

The terror of the sea

If you wanna reach the co-op boy you gotta get by me

Ha ha it's a Heave

Comin' down the plains

Stealin' wheat and barley and all the other grains

And it's a Ho

Farmers bar your doors

When you see the Jolly Rodger on Regina's mighty shores

Well the pirate life's appealin' but you don't just find it here

I hear in North Alberta there's a band of buccaneers

They roam the Athabasca from Smith to Fort McKay

And you're gonna lose your Stetson if you have to pass their way

Well winter is a-comin' and a chill is in the breeze

But pirate days are over once the river starts to freeze

But I'll be back in spring time and now I have to go

I hear there's lots of plunderin' down in New Mexico

And it's a Heave

Comin' down the plains

Stealin' wheat and barley and all the other grains

And it's a Ho

Farmers bar your doors

When you see the Jolly Rodger on Regina's mighty shores

And it's a Heave

Comin' down the plains

Stealin' wheat and barley and all the other grains

And it's a Ho

Farmers bar your doors

When you see the Jolly Rodger on Regina's mighty shores

And it's a Heave

Comin' down the plains

Stealin' wheat and barley and all the other grains

And it's a Ho

Farmers bar your doors

When you see the Jolly Rodger on Regina's mighty shores

Ha ha ha right
