	D
	I left Cape Briton on the coal boat

	A7
for St. John's Newfoundl	and

I met a little girl named Sally

	D
And I took her by her little white	hand

She shook her little head & said no way Fred,

	G

She said, "It's too bad he's got you for a dad

And I hope that you feel real	grand.

	D
He's gone working on the C	oal Boats boy

	A7	D
to be j	ust like his dirty old	man"
