(The bulk of melody and a lot of the lyrics borrowed heavily from Stompin' Tom Connors)

So long Stompin' Tom, I can't believe you're gone

So long Stompin' Tom, at least we've got your songs

Like Bud the Spud from the bright red mud

And the Gumboot Cloggeroo.

So long Stompin' Tom, may God take care of you

Me and my wife and kids we all sing along

Driving around Moncton town singing the Hockey Song.

We were to it and at it and at it and to it till we tuned our attitude in.

So long Stompin' Tom, until we meet again

So long Stompin' Tom, I can't believe you're gone

So long Stompin' Tom, at least we've got your songs

Like Margo's got the Cargo, b'y and the ol' Muk Luk Shoo

So long Stompin' Tom, may God take care of you.

So many people I've not met but yet know by name

Like poor ol' Ben down in the pen and that gal Red River Jane

Or Potato and Tomato driving to Windsor in their car

And see walking past the pawn shop is Luke with his guitar

So long Stompin' Tom, I can't believe you're gone

So long Stompin' Tom, at least we've got your songs

Like the TTC Skidaddler and Goodbye Rubberhead too

So long Stompin' Tom, may God take care of you

Well the Father Son and Holy Ghost

They're all hanging on every word

While you're singing songs of Saskatchewan

And tobacco from Tillsonburg.

And a million drunken angles are singing with you tonight.

And when you see my Mum down in the front row

Could you tell her I'm doing alright.

So long Stompin' Tom, I can't believe you're gone.

So long Stompin' Tom, at least we've got your songs.

Like Big Joe Mufferaw and Sudbury Saturday Night

So long Stompin' Tom may you rest in peace tonight.
