The Falling of the Pine
Come, all you men a-wanting of courage bold undaunted,
Repair unto the shanties before your youth's decline,
The spectators they will ponder and gaze on you with wonder,
For your noise exceeds the thunder at the falling of the pine.
Oh The shanty it's our station, lumbering our occupation,
Where each man has his station, some to score and some to line,
Oh It's nine foot of a block we will bust at every knock,
And the wolves and bears we'll shock at the falling of the pine.
When the day it is a-breaking from our slumbers we're awakened,
And Breakfast being over, our axes we will grind,
Through the woods we do advance where our axes sharp do glance,
And like brothers we'll commence for to fall the stately pine.
Then it's through the woods we go through the cold and stormy snow,
And it's there we labor gayly till bright Phoebus does not shine;
Then the shanties we'll go in and songs of love we'll sing,

And we'll make the valleys ring with the falling of the pine.
When the weather it grows colder, like lions we get bolder,
And while this forms grief for others, it is but the least of mine,
For the frost and snow so keen, it can never keep us in,
It can never keep us in from the falling of the pine.
When the snow is all diminished our shanty work all finished,
and Banished we are all for a little time,
then far apart we're scattered just until the booms are gathered,
Just Until the booms are gathered into handsome rafts of pine.
And When we get to Quebec, boys, you know we won't forget,
And our whistles we will wet with some brandy and good wine;
With fair maidens we will boast till our money is all used,
And, me boys, we'll ne'er refuse to go back and fall the pine.
