Stompin' Tom Connors - Margo's Cargo

Have ya heard the news in Newfoundland, rollin around the rock?|How Reggie brought for Margie home a cowsee dungsee clock?|With Margie bein a farmgirl, she almost took a fit-|To find the cowsee dungsee clock was really made of it||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 headin for Ont.,We're off to make 'er big-|Cause Margo's got the cargo bye and Reggie's got the rig!||Chorus:|Reggie's go the rig, Reggie's got the rig-|Margo's got the cargo bye, and Reggie's got the rig!||Now they're rollin through the maritimes, and the truck was nearly full|The cow began to ball, she was lonesome for da bull-|The mountie pulled them over, is there somethin I can do?|Go right ahead sir, Margie said, 'get in the back and moo!'||Now when they got to Montreal they missed the autoroute-|But they found that everyone in town was glad to help them out-|The sooner ya hit Toronto they said, the sooner ya'll make it big-|Cause Margo got the cargo bye, and Reggie's got the rig!||Chorus:||Now the truck was overflowin when Toronto hit the rise-|The 401 was full of dung and the cab was full of flies-|We're losin lots of money Reg, We can't afford to stop-|We gotta find the place that makes the cowzee dungzee clock-||Well I wish ya coulda been there on the corner of Queen and Yonge.|When Margo found the company and she dumped her load a dung!|And when she found the office she was singin and doin a jig!|Margo's got the cargo bye's and Reggie's got the rig!||Chorus:||It was later in the evenin when they heard from Mr. Judge!|'I don't know what to give yas, but I'll never hold a grudge!'|I tink a tousand dollars would be fair to hand ya down-|And thirty days of lodging will be free upon da town!||Now Margo says to Reggie, 'What a helluva deal we struck!'|'We mighta lost da cow, bye, but still we got da truck!'|And now they're back in Newfoundland,They're loadin up the the pig-|Cause Margo got da cargo, bye and Reggie's got da rig!||Chorus|
