Whats your fave Stompin tom song??

Bud The Spud


Well it's Bud the Spud, from the bright red mud,
Rollin' down the highway smilin',
The spuds are big on the back of Bud's rig,
There from Prince Edward Island,
There from Prince Edward Island.

Now from Charlottetown, or from Summerside,
They load him up for the long long ride;
He jumps in the cab and he's off with the Pride Sebagoes.
He's gotta catch a boat to make Tormentine,
Then he hits up that old New Brunswick line,
Through Montreal he comes just a flyin'
With another big load of potatoes.

Chorus

Well, the cops have been lookin' for the son of a gun
That's been rippin' the tar off the four-O-one;
They know the name on the truck shines up in the sun --
"Green Gables."
But he hits Toronto and at seven o'clock,
He backs her up again at the terminal dock,
And the boys gather `round just to hear him talk
About another big load of potatoes.

"Hey bud."

Is that you callin'

"Ya Bud, what are you haulin'?"

Got another big load of the best potatoes that's ever been growed.

"Where are they from?"

They're from Prince Edward Island.

"Where?"

They're from Prince Edward Island.

"Oh, do you like potatoes?"

Do I like potatoes? I like:
Mashed potatoes
Boiled potatoes
Scalloped potato
Whipped potato
Curried potato
French-fried potatoes
Baked potato

"Hash browns!"

Potato chips
Potato roti
Potato soup
Potato salad
Potato knish
Potato pari
Potato gelatti
Potato fritters
Potato pancakes

"Buddy, oh I want a potato pancake!"

Chorus

Now I know a lot of people from east to west
And they like the spuds from the island best,
`Cause they stand up to the hardest test --
Right at the table;
So when you see that old truck rolling by,
Kinda wave your hand or wink your eye,
`Cause that's Bud the Spud, from P.E.I.
With another big load
He's got another big load
He's got another big load of potatoes!


What can I say I was bored

Hey,
Cowtown Girl here...I'm logged in under my husband's handle. Here's my fave Stompin Tom!

Margo's Cargo


Have you heard the news in Newfoundland, rolling around the rock
How Reggie brought for Margie home a cowsie dungsie clock
With Margie being a farm girl, she amost took a fit
To find the cowsie dungsie clock was really made of it
Now, the clock was from Toronto and her mind was soon made up
She said to Reggie "get the cow and load her on the truck"
We're heading for Ontario and we're off to make her big
'Cause Margo's got the cargo, b'y, and Reggie's got the rig

Chorus

Reggie's got the rig, Reggie's got the rig
Margo's got the cargo, b'y, 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 they 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 sooner you'll make it big"
'Cause Margo's got the cargo, b'y, 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, b'y, 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 you, 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, b'y, 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, b'y, and Reggie's got the rig

He was actually a cousin of my maternal grandmother, although I'm not sure if it was through the Meredith or Switzer side of her family.
