  CHave you heard the news in Newfoundland,Frolling around the Crock
How Reggie brought for Margie home a Gcowsie dungsie clock
With CMargie being a farm girl,she Falmost took a Cfit 
To Ffind the cowsie Cdungsie clock was Greally made of Cit
Now,the clock was from Toronto and her Fmind was soon made Cup
She said to Reggie "get the cow and Gload her on the truck"
We're Cheaded to Ontario and we're Foff to make her Cbig 
Cause FMargo's got the Ccargo,bye and GReggie's got the Crig
Chorus
CReggie's got the rig ,FReggie's got the rig
Margo's got the Ccargo,bye and GReggie's got the Crig
Verse 2
  CNow they're rolling throught the maritines and Fthe truck was nearly Cfull
The cow began to bawl, she was Glonesome for the bull
CA Mountie pulled them over "is there Fsomething I can Cdo  
"FGo right ahead Csir" Margie said "Gclimb in the back and Cmoo".
And when they got to Montreal they Fmissed the auto Croute 
But they found that everyone in town was Gglad to help them out
"CThe sooner you hit Toronto" they said "Fthe sooner you'll make her Cbig".
FCause Margo's got the Ccargo bye and GReggie's got the Crig
Chorus
  CReggie's got the rig,FReggie's got the rig
Margo's got the Ccargo bye and GReggie's got the Crig
Verse 3
  Now the Ctruck was overflowin when FToronto hit the Crise 
The 401 was full of dung and the Gcab was full of flies
We're Closing lots of money Reg , we Fcan't afford to Cstop
We Fgot to find the Cplace that makes the GCowsie Dungsie Cclock
  CWell,I wish you could have seen them on the Fcorner of Queen and CYounge
When Margo found the company an she Gdumped her load of dung
CAnd when she found the office,she was Fsinging and doing a Cjig
FCause Margo's got the Ccargo,bye and GReggie's got the Crig
It was later in the evening when they Fheard from Mr.CJudge
I don't know what to give you's, but I'll Gnever hold a grudge 
CI think a thousand dollars would be Ffair to hand you Cdown
FAnd thirty days of Clodging you'll be Gfree upon the Ctown
Well Margo said to Reggie"what of a Fhell of a deal we Cstruck
We might have lost the cow,bye Gbut still we got the truck"
And Cnow they're back in Newfoundland,they're Floading up the Cpig 
FCause Margo's got the Ccargo,bye and GReggie's got the Crig
Chorus
CReggie's got the rig,FReggie's got the rig
Margo's got the Ccargo bye and GReggie's got the Crig
CReggie's got the rig,FReggie's got the rig
Margo's got the Ccargo bye and GReggie's got the Crig
