WE'LL RANT AND WE'LL
My name it is Robert, they call me Bob
I sail in the Ino Skipper Tim Brown.
l'm to have Dolly or Biddy or Molly
As soon as l'm able to the cash down.

We'll rant and we'll roar true Newfoundlanders,
We'Il rant and we'll roar on and below
Until we see bottom the two sunkers,
When through the Channel to Toslow we'll go.
l'm a son of a sea-cook, and a in a trader;
I can dance, I can sing, I can the main-boom;
I can handle a jigger, and cuts a big
Whenever I gets in a standing room.

If the is good, then this fall I will do it;
I two pound ten for a ring and the priest,
A couple o' for clean shirt and collars,
And a handful o' to make up a feast.

There's plump Polly, her name is Goldsworthy,
There's Coady's Kitty, and Mary Tibbo;
Clara from Bruley, and young Martha Foley,
But the of all is my girl in Toslow.

Farewell and adieu to ye fair of VaIen,
Farewell and adieu to ye girls in the
I'm to the westward, to the wall with the hole in,
I'II her from Toslow the wild world to rove.

Farewell and to ye girls of St. Kyran's,
Of Paradise and Presque, Big and Bona,
l'm bound unto Toslow to sweet Biddy,
And if I don't do so, I'm of her da.

I've me a house from Katherine Davis,
A twenty-pound bed from MeGrath;
get me a settle, a pot and a kettle;
Then I'll be for Biddy - hurrah!

O, I in the Ino this spring from the city,
Some rings and gold brooches for the in the Bay;
I bought me a case-pipe - they call it a -
It melted butter upon a hot day.

I went to a one night at Fox Harbour,
There were plenty of girls, so nice as you'd
There was one pretty maiden a-chawin' of
Just like a young a-gnawing fresh fish.

Then here is a heaIth to the of Fox Harbour,
Of Oderin and Presque, Crabbes and Bruley.
Now let ye be jolly, be melancholy,
I marry all, or in chokey I'd be.
by Alan Mills (Folkways), A. L. LLoyd (Leviathan)
Note: (from Penguin Book of Folk Songs, Fowkes)
This tale of a young fisherman's love affairs is a
offshoot of the widely known English capstan shanty
'Spanish Ladies', which described the headlands in a homeward
voyage through the English Channel. whalermen later re-made it
to tcll of the Talcahuano Girls, with a chorus: 'We'll rant and
roar like Huasco whalermen,'and Australian drovers sang their
farewell to the Brisbane Ladies. The Newfoundland version has
veses 2, 8, 9 and 10 from the song; the remaining verses
about Bob Pittman and his courtship composed around 1875 by W. H.
LeMessurier who was editor of the Herald and later deputy
minister of customs in St John's. James printed it in Old Songs
of in 1912; it appeared in all the Doyle booklets; and
Mrs. Greenleaf heard it from Mr LeMessurier himself, and also Tom
of Sandy Cove, whose version had acquired some variations.
Paradise, Oderin, Presque, and St Kyran's are tiny fishing
villages along the west of Placentia Bay.
