GOOFIE NEWFIE
by Roy Payne
Now I know that we don't talk like you mainlanders
And I know that we're the victims of your jokes
And I know that you all think we're goofie Newfies
And that we all belong in fishing boats
Why you even make fun of Joey Smallwood
And you call him Newfies funny little man
But he sure shakes up your politicians
When he stands up and fights for Newfoundland
Chorus
So go ahead and call us goofie Newfies
Laugh aloud when you hear us speak
We'll just sit back and enjoy living
And chug-a-lug that good old Newfie screech
I know that we don't have your super highways
And buildings that are forty stories high
Now we don't have your fancy cars and money
We don't need them and I'll tell you why
Why if we had them,we'd be just like you are
And proving it by telling stupid jokes
So I'm proud to say that I come from Newfie
And I was raised up in fishing boats
Repeat Chorus
