Intro:
Verse 1:
Oh Gideon lived across the bay,
He's getting older now.
His boat is big and bold.
She has a stalward bow
But my father's boat was second hand,
One someone used before,
And after every fishing trip
My father always swore;
That someday he would save enough
To go to St. John's town.
And buy himself a big new boat,
CHORUS:
'Cause she can punch the head in any gale
And ride the fishing grounds.
I often thought how pround I'd be
In a boat like Gideon Brown.
In a boat like Gideon Brown.
Verse 2:
Many years did pass away
And Dad began to fade.
He didn't talk of boats too much,
He said "Son I'm afraid"
If things don't soon improve
Then I'll be underground;
Before we ever get to see ourselves,
In a boat like Gideon Brown.
CHORUS
I sat and held his hand one day
And he said "Son, that policy"
The insurance is all in your name
You're the beneficiary
And when I'm gone they'll pay you off.
Then go to St. John's town
And buy yourself a big, new boat,
In a boat like Gideon Brown.
In a boat like Gideon Brown.
CHORUS x2
