| Have you heard the news in Newfoundland, | rolling around the | rock |
| G | |
| How Reggie brought for Margie home a | cowsie dungsie clock |
| C | F | C | |
| With | Margie being a farm girl, she | almost took a | fit |
| F | C | G | C | |
| To | find the cowsie | dungsie clock was | really made of | it |
| F | C | |
| Now, the clock was from Toronto and her | mind was soon made | up |
| G | |
| She said to Reggie "get the cow and | load her on the truck" |
| C | F | C | |
| We're | heading for Ontario and we're | off to make her | big |
| F | C | G | C | |
| 'Cause | Margo's got the | cargo, bye, and | Reggie's got the | rig |
| Chorus |
| C | F | |
| Reggie's got the rig, | Reggie's got the rig |
| C | G | C | |
| Margo's got the | cargo, bye, and | Reggie's got the | rig |
| Now they're rolling thru the Maritimes and the truck was nearly full |
| The cow began to bawl, she was lonesome for her bull |
| The Mountie pulled them over "Is there something I can do?" |
| "Go right ahead sir" margie said, "climb in the back and moo!" |
| And when the got to Montreal they missed the Autoroute |
| But they found that everyone in town was glad to help them out |
| "The sooner you hit Toronto", they said, "the sonner you'll make it big" |
| 'Cause Margo's got the cargo, bye, and Reggie's got the rig |
| Chorus |
| Well, I wish you could've been there at the corner of Queen and Yonge |
| When Margo found the company and she dumped her load of dung |
| And when she found the office, she was singin' and doin' a jig |
| 'Cause Margo's got the Cargo, bye, and Reggie's got the rig |
| It was later in the evening when they heard from Mr. Judge |
| "I don't know what to give yous, but I'll never hold a grudge |
| I think a thousand dollars would be fair to hand you down |
| And thirty days of lodging will be free upon the town!" |
| Well Margo said to Reggie "what a helluva deal we struck" |
| We might have lost the cow, bye, but still we've got the truck |
| And now they're back in Newfoundland, they're loading up the pig |
| Margo's got the cargo, bye, and Reggie's got the rig |
| Chorus 2x |
