Saltwater Cowboy

D G A Newfie’s a Newfie wherever he goes D A It don’t seem to matter the cut of his clothes D G The gleam in his eye and the way that he walks D A D And the true Newfie tone in the way that he talks G D By the Lord dyin’ by the tunderin’ gee D A How are you doin’ you son-of-a-bee D G You can’t fool your old man by dressin’ like that D A D You’re still just a Newfie in a Calgary hat D G Over the years when things just aren’t the best D A A lot of our fellers head out for the west D G But everyone knows that they ain’t gonna stay D A D They’ll always come back with their up-along ways D G No one suspected we’d ever have oil D A And Newfies took off for Alberta a while D G They traded their rubbers and their south western caps D A D For rodeo boots and big Calgary hats G D Oh, By the Lord dyin’ by the tunderin’ gee D A How are you doin’ you son-of-a-bee D G You can’t fool your old man by dressin’ like that D A D You’re still just a Newfie in a Calgary hat…… D G Salt water cowboys is new you’ll agree D A It seems we’ve created a new kind of breed D G With our hats and our songs and our talk about oil D A D We even talk Newfie in south- Texas style G D By the Lord dyin’ by the tunderin’ gee D A How are you doin’ you son-of-a-bee D G You can’t fool your old man by dressin’ like that D A D You’re still just a Newfie in a Calgary hat G D By the Lord dyin’ by the tunderin’ gee D A How are you doin’ you son-of-a-bee D G You can’t fool your old man by dressin’ like that D A D You’re still just a Newfie in a Calgary hat.... D A D Oh, You’re still just a Newfie in a Calgary hat!
