Stompin Tom Connors - The Sasquatch Song lyrics

One day at midnight, the sun was so bright

The moon had no light, but I could see

This big ol' sasquatch, said he was top-notch, at playin' hopscotch

Way up in a tree

So I bet my wrist watch, that big ol'd sasquatch

Would never play hopscotch way up in a tree

Now, there's a sasquatch, up in a tree crotch

He's got my wrist watch, and he's laughin' at me

I told the mounties, throughout the counties

To put some bounties all over B.C.

And stop that sasquatch, from playin' hopscotch

'Till he gives my wrist watch, right back to me

Then Corporal Savern, he found a tavern, in an empty cavern

Where the sun don't shine

And he found a sasquatch, drinkin' blue blotch

Wearin' a wrist watch, lookin' just like mine

So he asked the sasquatch, where he got the wrist watch

And that big ol' sasquatch, he began to lie

Said he got the wrist watch, while playin' hopscotch

Up in a tree crotch, with a stupid old guy

So the mountie told him, he could never hold him

He'd have to scold him, for doing no harm

So they played some hopscotch, until the sasquatch

Had the mountie's wrist watch, on his other arm

Now all the mounties, throughout the counties

They're placing bounties all over the land

And that big ol' sasquatch, he won't feel top notch

When they get their sasquatch, like they get their man

'Cause if that sasquatch keeps playin' hopscotch

There won't be a wrist watch, for miles around

'Cause he'll play hopscotch, 'till he gets your wrist watch

Up in that tree crotch, and he'll never come down

So don't play hopscotch, near any old tree crotch

Until that old, watch stealin', big feelin', hopscotchin' sasquatch is found.
