Newfie Girl - Dick Nolan - Lyrics ,

Well, I left Toronto city on a train eastward bound,
Headed for Newfoundland and my own hometown;
I fell asleep in a coach car as the rain was pouring down,
Goin' home to marry me a Newfie girl.

Then I woke up in that ol' car — the sun was shining through,
I had a vision, love, I thought that I saw you;
You were standin' right in front of me and set my heart a-whirl,
Goin' home to marry me a Newfie girl.

Well, I changed trains in Montreal, headed down Nova Scotia way,
To get the William Carson to take me across the bay;
I was so happy I heard myself say,
I'm goin' home to marry me a Newfie girl.

At last I'm in North Sydney, I think I'll have a beer,
I can see the William Carson tied up at the pier;
I'll have to save five dollars to pay the man my fare,
I'm goin' home to marry me a Newfie girl.

I guess around about midnight when we got under way,
I figured on six hours to take me across the bay;
And then I went into the lounge to pass the time away,
Goin' home to marry me a Newfie girl.

Well, I must have drunk quite a few 'cause the time it sure went fast,
And when I walked up on the deck I could see old Port Aux Basques;
And I heard someone say we'll soon be home at last,
Goin' home to marry me a Newfie girl.

My heart started beating faster as I stepped on Newfie soil,
I felt a glow all over and I broke into a smile;
I know the trip's not over yet, it'll be another while,
Goin' home to marry me a Newfie girl.

Well, I've been gone so long, my friend, I didn't hear the news,
They say the Bullet's off the line — the bus we'll have to use;
So, let's get started right away, we've got no time to lose,
Goin' home to marry me a Newfie girl.

Then I woke and realized this wasn't happening to me,
For I had been in Kingston since 1983;
But when I serve my time, my friends, and they set me free,
I'll go home and marry me a Newfie girl.
