Stompin Tom Connors - Margo's Got The Cargo guitar chord

By:Stompin Tom Connors

Song: Margo's Cargo

(C)Have you heard the news in Newfoundland, (F)rolling around the (C)rock

How Reggie brought for Margie home a (G)cowsie dungsie clock

With (C)Margie being a farm girl, she (F)almost took a (C)fit

To (F)find the cowsie (C)dungsie clock was (G)really made of (C)it

Now, the clock was from Toronto and her (F)mind was soon made (C)up

She said to Reggie "get the cow and (G)load her on the truck"

We're (C)heading for Ontario and we're (F)off to make her (C)big

Cause (F)Margo's got the (C)cargo, bye, and (G)Reggie's got the (C)rig

Chorus

(C)Reggie's got the rig, (F)Reggie's got the rig

Margo's got the (C)cargo, bye, and (G)Reggie's got the (C)rig

Now they're rolling thru the Maritimes and the truck was nearly full

The cow began to bawl, she was lonesome for her bull

The Mountie pulled them over "Is there something I can do?"

"Go right ahead sir" margie said, "climb in the back and moo!"

And when the got to Montreal they missed the Autoroute

But they found that everyone in town was glad to help them out

"The sooner you hit Toronto", they said, "the sonner you'll make it big"

Cause Margo's got the cargo, bye, and Reggie's got the rig

Chorus

Well, I wish you could've been there at the corner of Queen and Yonge

When Margo found the company and she dumped her load of dung

And when she found the office, she was singin' and doin' a jig

'Cause Margo's got the Cargo, bye, and Reggie's got the rig

It was later in the evening when they heard from Mr. Judge

"I don't know what to give yous, but I'll never hold a grudge

I think a thousand dollars would be fair to hand you down

And thirty days of lodging will be free upon the town!"

Well Margo said to Reggie "what a helluva deal we struck"

We might have lost the cow, bye, but still we've got the truck

And now they're back in Newfoundland, they're loading up the pig

Margo's got the cargo, bye, and Reggie's got the rig

Chorus (repeat 2x)
