1. _ Widow In The Window
Waiting for the nightingale to sing
Waiting for the harbour lights to dim
I've been on the outside lookin' in
While the widow in the window waits for him.
CHORUS 1:
But he won't be back
Can't you realize that?
And he's laughing at your sorrow
Waiting for a ship that won't come in
Waiting for a tear to reach her chin
I'm knockin', but she will not let me in.
CHORUS 2:
And he won't be back
Can't you realize that?
And he's laughing at your sorrow
How can I explain, your love is all in vain
While he wastes your precious hours
I could fill your days with flowers.
How can I replace the smile upon a face
Of a lover that I can never be
How can I begin to make you love again
And try to make you see
And he won't be back
Can't you realize that?
And he's laughing at
Your sorrow
CHORUS 1 + 2
Flowers (x10)

2. _ The Scolding Wife
Well, I came into a scolding wife a few short years ago
And ever since I lead a life of misery and woe
My wife she is a tyrant around the room and in
Ah, she'd sell me to the devil for a galss or two of Gin. (Alan's part)
Sure I'll get up and go to work as mild as any man
And she'll get up and dress herself and go and have her dram
And if I chance to say a word, it's well I know my doom
She'll follow me with the fire shovel up and down the room
(Bob's part)
CHORUS:
And if the devil'd take her I'd thank him for his pain
I swear to God I'll hang me self If I get married again
And if the devil'd take her I'd thank him for his pain
Oh, I swear to God I'll hang me self if I get married again
When I get home at breakfast time she'll tap me on the head
When I come home at dinner time I'll find her drunk in bed
When I come home at supper time my patients I must stop
CHORUS
Well, once I asked me scolding wife if I could go to bed
She scarce gave me an hour on the pillow to lay me head
When like a roarin' lion she came bustin' down the door
She caught me by the middle and threw me naked on the floor (S?'s part)
CHORUS
Now, me and my companions go to a public place
She'll search around the neighbourhood until she finds my face
She'll hoist me up and ridicule me for the company
Saying, "Petticoat is you master, and forevermore shall be." (All)
CHORUS (x4)

3. _ 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
And saying, "Sir, you're a stranger, not long to this land
Will you roam jolly sailor, would you roam along with me?
To some lonesome spot where nobody can see."
CHORUS:
"Don't you leave me jolly sailor," were the words she did cry.
Waiting 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 scarce 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 handkercheif and wiping her eyes
"Don't leave me jolly sailor," were the word she did cry.
CHORUS
"I'll bid 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, enjoying your bride
Think of the young maiden who layed by your side.
CHORUS
Think of the young Spaniard who kept squeezing your hand

4. _ Fortune
There's lots of fish in Bonavist Harbour,
Lots of fish right in around here;
Boys and girls are fishin' together,
Fourty-five from Carbonear.
Catch a-hold this one, catch a-hold that one,
Swing around this one, dance around she;
Dance around this one, dance around that one,
Did-dle dum this one, did-dle dum-dee.

5. _ Penelope
Every day-ay-ay-ay-ay yeah
Penelope works in the market
Down in the coconut trees
She's saving up all her money
To go to America across the sea
She once had an uncle
He lived in Detroit town
And they got all his post cards
But his body has never been found
To this day-ay-ay-ay-ay yeah
To this day-ay-ay-ay yeah
To this day-ay-ay-ay-ay yeah
To this day-ay-ay-ay yeah
She got a job as a domestic
Workin' for the minimum wage
To all her friends back home in Jamaica
They say, "You really got it made in the shade!"
But they don't see her sweat and grind
And her bended on her knees
She wishes she was back in Jamaica
Beneath the coconut trees
CHORUS:
Every day-ay-ay-ay-ay yeah
Every day-ay-ay-ay yeah
Every day-ay-ay-ay-ay yeah
Every day-ay-ay-ay yeah
CHORUS
Penelope's back in the market
She found what it was all about.
No, no, she doesn't regret it
She's just glad that she got out.
But others aren't so lucky
They're there 'til the day they die
Trapped in the steel and concrete
No beach, no moon, no sky
CHORUS
Every day, yeah (x2)

6. _ Own True Way
It 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 and lost the war
But I don't mind if you say,
Every time you talk to me
Every time 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 believe in Brotherhood
And the good of all mankind
But I admit it's hard to find
But, if you wanna 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,
Every time you talk to me
Every time we talk
CHORUS
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 tellin' stupid jokes
You heard 'em laugh every time you spoke
But you don't let nobody put you down.
But I don't mind if you say,
Every time you talk to me
Every time you talk to me
Every time we talk
CHORUS

7. _ Sea Of No Cares
When you're in love, there's no time and no space
There's a permanent smile on your face
Your friends all complain that you're going insane
But the truth is they're just afraid
CHORUS:
Hey, hey, hey somewhere
You threw your fear in the sea of no cares
Hey, hey, hey somewhere
You threw your fear in the sea of no cares
When you decide that what counts is inside
Your friends all say it's a lie
But there's no brighter light than the look in her eyes
When you're walking her home through the night
CHORUS
Let yourself go with the tide
There's an angel by your side tonight
Throw your fear in the sea
Back at the bar getting cynically stoned
Your friends are drinking alone
But it's funny, 'cause they don't even cross your mind
When she asks you into her home
CHORUS (x2)
You threw your fear in the sea (x2)

8. _ Clearest Indication
You left in the morning
You left without a word
Did you get what you came for
Is this what I deserve
All I know is the silence
Was the loudest thing I'd ever heard
CHORUS:
Where do we stand, what am I supposed to do?
Give me the clearest indication
That I'm not alone with you
Reach out your hand, in a world I thought I knew
I need the clearest indication
The clearest indication from you
Did we have all we wanted
And let it slip away in time
Like a country divided
Fifty-one to forty-nine
Years ago, I suppose
We just can't seem to make up our minds
CHORUS
In times like these it's hard to see
With any kind of clarity
What's the point of wondering anymore
So much I just can't figure out
I'd love to know without a doubt
For sure, for sure
CHORUS
I need the clearest indication from you (x3)

9. _ Yarmouth Town
In Yarmouth Town there lived a man,
He had a little tavern by the strand.
And the landlord had a daughter fair
A pretty little thing with the golden hair.
CHORUS:
Oh won't you come down, won't you come down
Oh 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
And I'll come down and let you right in.
CHORUS (x2)
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's came down and let him right in.
Well he's never seen such a sight before,
A string around her finger was all she wore!
CHORUS (x2)
So, all young men who to Yarmouth go
If you see those girls with their hair hung low,
All you got to do is pull their strings
And they'll come down and let you right in.
CHORUS (x4)

10. _ French Perfume
It's of a bold young smuggler
From Fortune he did sail
He rode the waves from St. Pierre
And he never saw the jail
He filled her up with contraband
Perfume, smokes, and rum
He hoped the fog was thick enough
To make another run
CHORUS:
You can still see the sight on a winter's night
Of his wake in the light of the moon
If the wind turns right and you don't take fright
You can small that French perfume
But the Mountie boat was waiting
As he crawled up Fortune Bay
And when they hit the spotlight
It was like the light of day
He didn't bring her head 'round
When they told him to heave to
He opened up the engines
And he ran for Spanish Room
CHORUS
They said they heard him laughing
With the Mounties closing in
His engines screaming murder
And his face set in a grin
The seagulls started lifting
Like an angry banshee choir
He hit the rocks at 50 clicks
And the sky lit up with fire
It's of a bold young smuggler
From Fortune he did sail
He rode the waves from St. Pierre
And he never saw the jail
And when it's cold and foggy
On the rocks near Spanish Room
They say you hear him laughing
And you smell that French perfume
CHORUS (x2)
You can smell that French perfume

11. _ Stumbling In
I don't mind confiding
That I make stupid mistakes
Been misled and misguided
And I'm easily led astray
You can dance with disaster
Never missing a step
Spinning faster and faster
Long after I've already slipped
CHORUS:
But in the middle of it all
You always break my fall
In the middle of it all
Over and over, again and again
You come through the door and I'm stumbling in
I'm twisted and tangled and soaked to the skin
You come through the door and I'm stumbling in
Pulled in every direction
I've a million regrets
And you're the perfect protection
When I'm down and in over my head
CHORUS
And there's bones in my closet
I've collected quite a few
God knows what causes
An angel to love a fool
An angel to love a fool
CHORUS
I'm stumbling in (x4)

12. _ A Boat Like Gideon Brown
Oh, Gideon lived accross the bay
He's gettin' older now
His boat is big and strong and bold
She has a stalwart bow
But my father's boat was second hand
One someone'd used before
And after every fishing trip
My father always swore.
That someday he would save enough
To go to St. John's Town
And buy himself a big new boat
A boat like Gideon Brown
A boat like Gideon Brown
Confederation came around
And the days of old-age pension
He said, "Son, I'm saving every cent
And this you must not mention."
You save the baby bonus too
And things just might turn around
And we'll have enough to buy a boat
A boat like Gideon Brown
CHORUS:
She can punch ahead in any gale
And ride the fishing ground
I often thought how proud I'd be
In a boat like Gideon Brown
In a boat like Gideon Brown
Many years did pass away
And Dad began to fade
He didn't talk of boats too much
He said, "Son, I'm afraid"
If things don't soon improve
Then I'll be under ground
Before we ever get to see ourselves
In a boat like Gideon Brown
CHORUS
I sat and held his hand one day
He said, "Son, that policy
The insurance is all in your name
You're the beneficiary."
And when I'm gone, they'll pay you off
Then go to St. John's Town
And buy yourself a big new boat
A boat like Gideon Brown.
CHORUS (x2)
