A true Canadian. Stompin' Tom Connors!

Stompin' Tom Connors - "Sudbury Saturday Night"

[lyrics below]

And, the girls are out to bingo and the boys are gettin' stinko
And we think no more of Inco on a Sudbury Saturday night

The glasses they will tinkle when our eyes begin to twinkle
And we'll think no more of Inco on a Sudbury Saturday night

With Irish Jim O'Connel there and Scotty Jack McDonnell
There's honky Fredrick Hurchell gettin' tight, but that's alright
There's happy German Fritzy, there, with Frenchy getting tipsy
And even Joe The Gypsy knows it's Saturday to night

Now, when Mary-Ann and Mabel come to join us at the table
And tell us how the Bingo went to night - we'll look a fright
But if they won the money, we'll be lappin' up the honey, boys
'Cos everything is funny, for it's Saturday tonight

Yeah, the girls are out to bingo and the boys are gettin' stinko!
And we think no more of Inco on a Sudbury Saturday night

The glasses they will tinkle when our eyes begin to twinkle
And we'll think no more of Inco on a Sudbury Saturday night

We'll drink the loot we borrowed and recuperate tomorrow
'Cos everything is wonderful tonight - we had a good fight
We ate the dilly pickle and we forgot about the nickel
And everybody's tickled, for it's Saturday tonight

The songs that we'll be singing, they might be wrong, but they'll be
ringing
And all the lights of town are shining bright, and we're all tight

We'll get to work on Monday, but tomorrow's only Sunday
And we're out to have a fun day, for it's Saturday tonight

And, the girls are out to bingo and the boys are gettin' stinko!
And we think no more of Inco on a Sudbury Saturday night

The glasses they will tinkle, when our eyes begin to twinkle
And we'll think no more of Inco on a Sudbury Saturday night
We'll think no more of Inco on a Sudbury Saturday night...

ironic...
Haven't heard old Stompin Tom Conners for ages and ages! I am
originally from an Inco mining town so they played that song a lot.
Makes me homesick actually.
