"Yarmouth Town"

In Yarmouth town there lived a man
He had a little tavern by the strand
And the landlord had a daughter fair
Pretty little thing with golden hair

[Chorus:]
Won't you come down
Won't you come down
Won't you come down to Yarmouth town

One night there came a sailor man
He asked the daughter for her hand
Well I won't marry you she said
I have all I want without being wed

But if with me you'd like to linger
I'll tie some string all around my finger
As you walk by, pull on my string
I'll come down and let you right in

[Chorus 2x]

Well the very next day at closing time
The sailor man goes off to the strand
And as he walks by pulls on that string
And she came down and let him right in

Well he's never such a sight before
A string on her finger was all she wore

[Chorus 2x]

So all you men who to Yarmouth go
If ya see those girls with their hair hung low
All ya gotta do is pull their strings
And they'll come down and let you right in

[Chorus 4x]

"Barque In The Harbour"

From a barque in the harbour I went roaming on shore
And stepped into a pub where I was oft times before
And as I was sitting and enjoying my glass
Who chanced to walk in but a young Spanish lass
She sat down beside me and kept squeezing my hand
Saying 'Sir you're a stranger not long to this land'
Will you roam, Johnny Sailor, would you roam along with me
To some lonesome spot where nobody can see

[Chorus:]
'Don't you leave me Johnny Sailor' were the words she did cry
Waving and weeping and wiping her eyes
When you reach home in your own Newfoundland

Think of the young Spaniard who kept squeezing your hand

I quickly consented with her for to roam
She lived by herself in a neat little home
She was brisk, plump and jolly and her age scare 19
And the name of that maiden I think was Irene

One fine summer's morning our ship, she set sail
And down by the seashore lovely Irene she came
Waving her pocket hankerchief and wiping her eyes

'Don't leave me Johnny Sailor' were the words she did cry

[Chorus]

I'll give you farewell love on a fine summer's breeze
But love don't forget me when you're crossing the sea
And when you are married and enjoying your bride
Think on the young maiden who lay by your side

[Chorus]

"Own True Way"

It's takes a lot to get to the top
And a little just to fall off quick
And I think I've seen you here before

Sometimes you fly so high
So fast it makes you sick
You won the battle lost the war

But I don't mind if you say
Everytime you talk to me

Everytime we talk

[Chorus:]
We came, we saw
We conquered and crumbled
In our own true way
We loved, we fought
We rocked and we tumbled
In our own true way

Well I belive in brotherhood
And the good of all mankind

Though I admit it's hard to find

But if you want to talk just come and knock
It don't matter what the time
Solitude is no friend of mine

And I don't mind if you say
Everytime you talk to me
Everytime we talk

[Chorus]

I don't mind

It's hard to be from a rock in the sea
Livin' in a big steel town

Finding unfamiliar faces all around

You heard 'em tell stupid jokes
You heard 'em laugh everytime you spoke
But you don't let nobody put you down

But I don't mind if you say
Everytime you talk to me
Everytime you talk to me
Everytime we talk

[Chorus]

In our own true way
And I don't mind
If you say

"Fortune"

There's lots of fish in Bonavist harbour
Lots of fish right in around here
Boys and girls are fishing together
45 from Carbonear

Catch a hold this one, catch a hold that one
Swing around this one, swing around she
Dance around this one, dance around that one
Diddle um this one, diddle um dee

"Shines Right Through Me"

These days I feel a change, All the patterns rearranged
Though I can't explain, I know I'm not afraid
Now I realize all good things can be supplied
And they come from you

[Chorus]
It's all brand new, and it shines right through
Shines Right Through Me
