Piggy-Back Race
Stompin' Tom Connors

Twas July 32 on Piggy Back Day

And the crowds were all standing in each other's way

They came there to watch him that awful disgrace

The annual champ of the piggy-back race.


The cabbage roll kid just an overgrown yuke

He was last years champ because he won by a fluke

For ole grip tight Glenny was too thin to be seen

And he lost his first prize to the cabbage machine

And leprechaun Johnny would not have entered this deal

But he had no way of knowing all the pigs would be real

And the Skinners Pond hippie had a laugh in his face

To see Leprechaun Johnny in a piggy-back race


Singing chuckle D chuckle D D D D

Singing chuckle D chuckle D D


Now the crowd started looking at a sight that was weird

Just an old pair of boots with a nose and a beard

And it said I can win any prize in this show

And he signed himself in Pinochio Joe

Now all the contestants there must have been 10

Were all ready to jump on their pigs in the pen

But the whistle got stuck and so did the gun

And there wasn't a soul there that could count higher then 1

At last they were off each man to a hog

For the 100 yard dash through that dirty old bog

Where that leprechaun vanished and left not a trace

No more to return to the piggy-back race


Singing chuckle D chuckle D D D D

Singing chuckle D chuckle D D


Now the man with the nose he was making good time

He arrived with his hog at the finishing line

They were covered with mud and their noses so big

There was no one could tell which one was the pig

Now old grip tight Glenny was no fool or no kook

He slipped off his pig but came in but came in on the yuke

And if you see a pig with a cowboy hat on

It belongs to that hippie from old skinners pond

Now pinochio Joe he could never play chess

But at piggy back riding we know he's the best

So we gave him first prize a pie in his face

And we found our new champ for the piggy back race


Singing chuckle D chuckle D D D D

Singing chuckle D chuckle D D
