歌词
I say to you that there is in operation at the present time
A conspiracy to sell, and I use the word sell advisably
This country to the Dominion of Canada
We fought in wars on foreign shores 'til our fathers were forsaken
Some still cry for those who lie under the butcher's bloody apron
Hamel on the Somme, at Gallipoli
Only under Fleming's flag will we be truly free
Raise your glass, hey!
Hold your head up high
Raise your heart and brace your soul, pink, white and green will fly
We'll be free, hey!
To challenge any man
We're on a rebel sailin' ship, The Republic of Newfoundland!
The year was 1949, they gave our nation away
For pension cheques and UI stamps, and lived the day-to-day
Some stood by and watched the ballots fall
No more wicked sisters, no more Cinderella's ball
Raise your glass, hey!
Hold your head up high
Raise your heart and brace your soul, pink, white and green will fly
We'll be free, hey!
To challenge any man
We're on a rebel sailin' ship, The Republic of Newfoundland!
It's been 60 years of Newfie jokes
60 years of bein' broke
60 years of blowin' smoke
To foolish Newfoundlanders
60 years of Smallwood dreams
60 years of stupid schemes
Only work for them it seems
So raise your glass, hey!
Hold your head up high
Raise your heart and brace your soul, pink, white and green will fly
We'll be free, hey!
To challenge any man
We're on a rebel sailin' ship, The Republic of Newfoundland!
Come Liberal, come Tory
Come Cadillac, come dory
Come Labrador, come Newfoundland
It's here we make our stand
The time now is right
For us to stand and fight
God guard thee Newfoundland
So raise your glass, hey!
Hold your head up high
Raise your heart and brace your soul, pink, white and green will fly
We'll be free, hey!
To challenge any man
We're on a rebel sailin' ship, The Republic of Newfoundland!
Raise your glass, hey!
Hold your head up high
Raise your heart and brace your soul, pink, white and green will fly
We'll be free, hey!
To challenge any man
We're on a rebel sailin' ship, The Republic of Newfoundland!
Look out for those amongst us who would take ourselves and our country on a one-way ride
