Teaming Up The Cariboo Road - Canadian Traditional/Folk Song Midi and Lyrics

Teaming Up The Cariboo Road
Canadian Traditional/Folk Song
Lyrics

Here comes Henry Currie
He's always in a hurry
Teaming up the Cariboo Road
He makes his horses go
Through the dust and through the snow
Teaming up the Cariboo Road.
You should see him sprintin'
To the ball at Clinton
Teaming up the Cariboo Road.
He makes the ladies dance
Just like his horses prance
Teaming up the Cariboo Road.

   Refrain
   When you hear that whip a-poppin'
   You bet he's got a load.
   When you hear that sweet voice singing
   "Stand up rowdy on the Cariboo Road!"

Pete Egan as rule
To his horses he is cruel
Teaming up the Cariboo Road.
He beats them with a rail
And puts fire in their tail
Teaming up the Cariboo Road.
Old Pete he looks so wicked
When you ask him for a ticket
Teaming up the Cariboo Road.
At the sight of half a dollar
He will grab you by the collar
Teaming up the Cariboo Road.

The driver's on the deck
With a rag around his neck
Teaming up the Cariboo Road.
While the swamper in the stable
Makes sure the teams are able
Teaming up the Cariboo Road.
When the roads are in a mire
Then the freighters earn their hire
Teaming up the Cariboo Road.
But they can beat the weather
When they all pull together
Teaming up the Cariboo Road.
