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
