I’se the b’y that builds the boat and I’se the b’y that sails her.
I’se the b’y that catches the fish and takes them home to Liza
Chorus
Hip your partner Sally Thibeau, hip your partner Sally Brown
Fogo, Twillingate, Morton’s Harbour, all around the circle
Sods and rinds to cover the flake, cake and tea for supper
Codfish in the spring of the year, fried in maggoty butter
I don’t want your maggoty fish, they’re no good for winter
I can buy as good as that way down in Bonavista
I took Liza to a dance, Faith but she could travel
Every step that she did take was up to her knees in gravel
