[Verse 1]
AmCome all you good people and Cgive me some Emtime
AmA tale I will tell of a Ctime long Emgone by
AmTo northeast New Brunswick in Csong we will Emspeed
AmAnd sing of the men up the CMiramiAmchi.
[Verse 2]
AmSing of the swampers who Ccleared out the Emroads
AmAnd of the teamsters who Ccarried the Emloads
AmTo the swift runners and Cdrivers they Embe
AmWorking the woods up the CMiramiAmchi. (ch)
[Chorus]
GCome hell or high water, Cblack flies or deep Dsnows
GThe Miramichi Men are the Ctoughest you Amknow
GThe Miramichi Men are the Amtough ones.
[Verse 3]
AmSo here's to the choppers, Cso quick and so Emstrong
AmAnd to the raftsmen who Cmove it Emalong
AmHere's to the toters, Cportashers Emwho'll be
AmWorking the woods up the CMiramiAmchi (ch)
[Verse 4]
AmHere's to the Islanders, Cgood with the Emaxe
AmAnd those Quebeckers, Csuch fine Emlumberjacks
AmTo the Boys up from Bangor, Cdown east by the Emsea
AmWho all took their turn up the CMiramiAmchi. (ch)
[Verse 5]
AmHere's to the farmers who Ctoiled on the Emland
AmAnd to the fishers down Cby the sea Emstrand
AmTo the miners and millers Cwherever ye Embe
AmWho all did their time on the CMiramiAmchi (ch)
[Verse 6]
AmSo in the evening when the Cwork is all Emdone
AmWe'll gang round the fire for Cfrolic and Emfun
AmWith fiddles and fly beer a Csinging they'll Embe
AmOf all of the times on the CMiramiAmchi. (ch)
[Chorus]
GCome hell or high water, Cblack flies or deep Dsnows
GThe Miramichi Men are the Ctoughest you Amknow
GThe Miramichi Men are the Amtough ones.
