Thread Name: Discussion: Rollin' Home (sea song)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Rollin' Home
None of these is the one I remember my dad singing...think it was a Fr. Canadian voyegeur(sp) canoe paddling song: "I've got sixpence, jolly jolly sixpence,I've got sixpence to last me all my life; I've got tuppence to spend & tuppence to lend and tuppence to send unto me wife, poor wife. No cares have I to grieve me, no pretty little girl to decieve me, I'm happy as a king, believe me as we go Rollin' rollin' home.

rollin' home (rollin' home), rollin' home (rollin' home) by the light of the silvery mo-oo-on, Happy is the day, we go our homeward way, As we go rollin' rollin' home.
