Here are the lyrics, and I hope it doesn't provoke any rabid anti-Canadian sentiment. Norman Blake recorded this in 1996 on Chattanooga Sugar Babe (shanachie 6027), and he credits the very Wilf Carter mentioned in the Long Steel Rails thread. I know it isn't as mesmerizing a piece of literature as Nottamun Town.
