Lyrics - Heavy Water Plant Song by Celtic Folk

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
Mac
Neil 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 mysorrow
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
