Donkey Riding - Great Big Sea - Lyrics ,

[Wranghorn]

Woot New Brunswick! :D

[AwesomeChick32123]

i love this song i sing it in music class but its not exactly that fast

[IBShawty]

@JEdgarWallace yes I am well aware of that. The lyrics are still wrong.

[IBShawty]

It's Fredericton, not London-Town.

[JEdgarWallace]

@IBShawty He only says Fredricton because that's where the show was, normally the lyric is London-town.

[Sw1mg1rl]

It is fredrickton not London town just saying

[nosuchpersonvideo]

The album version uses "10 weeks pay" and "London Town". This being a live version, they might slip up on a word or two. Plus where they said Fredericton and said Miramichi the crowd reacted with cheers. Makes me think this version might have been a recording from a performance in New Brunswick. Like many bands, GBS will try to play up to a local audience.

[340shorty]

I didn't see a whole lot of women last time i went to Miramichi to play rugby.

[boycrazyrentfreak]

i hav a question: is this the original version sped up or is the one i kno just slowed down a lot? i think the one i kno is just slowed down because in the one i kno some of the verses are a little different but i wasnt sure so i wnted to ask.

[Slexym]

Huh. Not what grandma used to sing me to sleep with. But still pretty awesome

[haqzain88]

1) LOVE YOUR ACCOUNT NAME!

2) Don't mean to sound mean but : a) Fredricton b)"Hear the girls all shout hooray!" c) ten months pay.

3) Your like the only person who makes great big sea lyric movies! :( There should be more people.

P.S

4) Awesome work!

When they play this live, they usually add a piece for the town they're playing in. They used Charlottetown when I saw them in Charlottetown, after all. And I know for a fact that they don't use it usually in the song xD

[UNd34DxG33k]

this is a lot of failure for one video.

[maddysum41fan]

When I was little me and my brother used to run around the house when my parents played it on the radio, we'd do that for like half and hour

[BreanneChyeah]

I live in miramichi ! :)

[jessizkool2000]

my bff says she listened 2 this song everyday in newfoundland

[jessizkool2000]

<3 this song!

[pussnjax]

omg! my piano book says to play it slow! Boy was it wrong!

RIDING ON A DONKEY!

[OriginalLawnmower]

Did they ever do a studio version of this?

[Erinandsam1]

this is for my friend erin she loves great big sea !!!

[colorfulfreak101]

omg this song brings so much memories :D

[ismfofbiggestfan]

i was in ormoncton when this was sang at the show so sick

[Cprlbomb14]

It's ten months pay and fredricton not London town

[VenomousNewfie]

@Cprlbomb14 well i just copied the lyrics from a site :/ plus this is youtube not english class .

[emjey87]

@VenomousNewfie i think you're both right. it is "london-town" but i have the feeling they played this in fredricton and changed the lyrics to appease the crowd (note the wild screaming) :)

[GatesOfHell4]

@VenomousNewfie Yeah... because English teachers teach geography... Thanks for posting this video, by the way.

[Keezree]

@Cprlbomb14 There's another version of the song where they do say "London town."

[KireBloodswrath]

@Cprlbomb14 When they play live they say ether or.

[kkdonmac]

@Cprlbomb14 well if you want to be technical the lyrics are London town..they said Fredericton cause that's where they were singing the song

[jdued3]

@Cprlbomb14 There is actually a version of the song that uses ten weeks pay and London Town.

[geminigrl101]

@Cprlbomb14 In this version he says Fredricton because I suppose they are there seeing as this is a live recording. The studio version lyric is London Town

[thekorribanarchives]

@Cprlbomb14 In the album version it IS 10 weeks pay and London-town. The reason they say Fredricton is that happens to be where this live version was recorded. Otherwise, the rest of the lyrics "see the king in his golden crown" doesn't really make a whole lot of sense....
