Stompin Tom Connors - Bud The Spud lyrics

It's bud the spud from the bright red mud

Rollin' down the Highway smiling-

The Spuds are big on the back of Bud's rig

And they're from Prince Edward Island they're from Prince Edward Island

Now from Charlottetown or from Summerside

They load him down for the big long ride

He jumps in the cab and he's off with the pride Sobagos

He's gotta catch the boat to make Tormentine & he heads up that old New Brunswick line

Through Montreal he comes just a flyin with another big load a potatoes.

It's bud the spud from the bright red mud

Rollin' down the Highway smiling-

The Spuds are big on the back of Bud's rig

And they're from Prince Edward Island they're from Prince Edward Island

Now the Ontario Provincial Police don't think mucha Bud...

Yeah the cops a been lookin for the son of a gun

That's been rippin the tar off the 401-

They know the name on the truck shines up in the sun-"Green Gables."

But he hits Toronto and it's 7 O'Clock when he backs er up agin the terminal dock.

And the boys gather round just to hear him talk

About another big load a potatoes!

It's bud the spud from the bright red mud

Rollin' down the Highway smiling-

The Spuds are big on the back of Bud's rig

And they're from Prince Edward Island they're from Prince Edward Island

Now I know a lot of people from east to west

that like the spuds from the island best.

Cause they'll stand up to the hardest test-right on the table.

So when ya see that big truck rollin by- wave yer hand or kinda wink yer eye,

Cause that's Bud the Spud from old PEI, with another big load a potatoes!

It's bud the spud from the bright red mud

Rollin' down the Highway smiling-

slow-because he's got another big load,

of the best dog gone potatoes that's ever been growed

And they're from Prince Edward Island They're from Prince Edward Island
