“Come, klootchman, fly with Shorty
An’ leave your bark canoe.
We’ll take a hyas Klattawa
Into the Cariboo.
Where there’s plenty grouse an’ mowitsh,
Where the silver rainbows play;
We will iskum tenas moosum
When daylight fades away.
No more am I to wander
A’lookin’ for a stake.
We’ll build a tenas cabin
On the shore of Canim Lake.”

“I met a big rough-neck on the Cariboo trail,
His eyes were bunged an’ his face was all pale;
One ear was a-hangin’ an’ his nose was bust in,
An’ the way the cuss hobbled was a crime an’ a sin!
‘Oh, tillikum!’ says he, ‘you see me this way
’Cause I said ‘You’re a liar’ to Shorty McCrae.’ ”
“So stop, look an’ listen to what I now say
Don’t start any ructions with Shorty McCrae.”

“Oh, Shorty, said ol’ Snag-tooth-Sal,

That I became your klootchman
In the merry month o’ May.

You didn’t throw me down;
But we walked the streets together
In ol’ Vancouver town.”

Pass along the hootch an’ we’ll all have a shot,

As we go marchin’ on.
Glory, glory halle-lu-yah, Glory, glory halle-lu-yah.
Glory, glory halle-lu-yah, Glory, glory halle-lu-yah,
As we go marchin’ on.”
