Heavy Water Plant Song lyrics

Heavy Water Plant


I left my home at a quarter to ten
I headed for the Heavy Water Plant
Haven`t worked since Heaven`s knows when
Singing the Song of Cape Breton

Well I picked me pogey up at George Street
And I headed for the bank on the corner
Well new life seems to come to me feet
Singing the Song of Cape Breton

Pogey cash well into me hand
I headed for the nearest tavern
Jesus, I`m the king of the land
Singing the Song of Cape Breton

I took a table down at the back
I order two, by Christ I was thirsty
Finished them off at the very first crack
Singing the Song of Cape Breton

In walks MacNeil from Margaree
He must have got his pogey yesterday
He`s so drunk he can hardly see
Singing the Song of Cape Breton

Pogey Cash Well into me hand
I headed for the nearest tavern
Jesus, I`m the king of the land
Singing the Song of Cape Breton

[fiddle solo]

Oh.. well it`s four o`clock..oh, and much to my
sorrow
I should have tried the Heavy Water Plant
Ah, t`hell I`ll go tommorrow
Singing the Song of Cape Breton

I left me home at a quarter to ten
I headed for the Heavy Water Plant
Haven`t worked since Heaven`s know when
Singing the Song of Cape Breton
Singing the Song of Cape Breton
Singing the Song of Cape Breton
