The Lumberjack Song Words and music by Terry Jones, Michael Palin, and Fred Tomlinson (Monty Python's Flying Circus)I never wanted to be a barber in the first place! I... I wanted to be ... A LUMBERJACK! Leaping from tree to tree! As they float down the mighty rivers Of British Colombia! With my best girl by my side The Larch! The Pine! The Giant Redwood tree! The Sequoia! The Little Whopping Rule Tree! We'd sing! Sing! Sing! G C (Am) Oh, I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay D7 G I sleep all night and I work all day Chorus: He's a lumberjack and he's okay He sleeps all night and he works all day I cut down trees, I eat my lunch I go to the lavat'ry On Wednesdays I go shoppin' And have buttered scones for tea Mounties: He cuts down trees, he eats his lunch He goes to the lavat'ry On Wednesdays 'e goes shoppin' And has buttered scones for tea Chorus I cut down trees, I skip and jump I like to press wild flowers I put on women's clothing And hang around in bars Mounties: He cuts down trees, he skips and jumps He likes to press wild flowers He puts on women's clothing And hangs around ..... in bars?? Chorus I chop down trees, I wear high heels Suspenders and a bra I wish I'd been a girlie Just like my dear papa Mounties: He cuts down trees, he wears high heels Suspenders?? and a ... a bra?? What's this? Wants to be a 'girlie'? Oh, my! And I thought you were so rugged! Poofter! Chorus All: He's a lumberjack, and he's okaaaaaaaaaayyy ... Sleeps all night and he works all day.
