Come all ye jolly shanty boys and listen to my song
It's all about the shanties and how they get along
They are a jolly crew of boys so merry and so fine
Who while away the winters a cutting down the pine
The choppers and the sawyers they lay the timber low
The skidders and the swampers they holler to and fro
And then there come the loaders before the break of day
Come load up the teams boys and to the woods away
The broken ice is floating and sunny is the sky
Three hundred big and strong men are ready wet or dry
With cant hooks and with jam pikes these noble men do go
And risk their lives each springtime on some big stream you know

Come all ye jolly shanty boys and listen to my song
It's all about the shanties and how they get along
They are a jolly crew of boys so merry and so fine
Who while away the winters a cutting down the pine
The choppers and the sawyers they lay the timber low
The skidders and the swampers they holler to and fro
And then there come the loaders before the break of day
Come load up the teams boys and to the woods away
The broken ice is floating and sunny is the sky
Three hundred big and strong men are ready wet or dry
With cant hooks and with jam pikes these noble men do go
And risk their lives each springtime on some big stream you know
It's all about the shanties and how they get along
They are a jolly crew of boys so merry and so fine
Who while away the winters a cutting down the pine
The choppers and the sawyers they lay the timber low
The skidders and the swampers they holler to and fro
And then there come the loaders before the break of day
Come load up the teams boys and to the woods away
The broken ice is floating and sunny is the sky
Three hundred big and strong men are ready wet or dry
With cant hooks and with jam pikes these noble men do go
And risk their lives each springtime on some big stream you know
