The Song Of The Mounties Poem by Dave SmithWhite

The Song Of The Mounties



I want to be a Mountie, and ride a great big horse.
You can't pay me any bounty, to keep me from the Force.
I want to be a Mountie, 'cause I always get my man:
Pursue him through the counties, of this wide and wild land.

I want to be a Mountie, and ride a smaller horse.
I'll call my pony, Tony, and teach him codes of morse.
In the course of my heroic duties he will warn me if he can.
I want to be a Mountie, 'cause I always get my man.

I want to be a Mountie and do extremist sports,
Like roughing up a townie as a sheriff of the courts.
I want to be a Mountie. I want to be it's brand;
I want to be a Mountie, 'cause we always get our man.

I want to be a Mountie, and drive a great big jeep,
With fellows just as doughty for we've a peace to keep.
I want to be a Mountie, that tough and valiant band.
I want to be a Mountie, 'cause we always get our man.

I want to be a Mountie, 'cause I know they have my back,
When harrassing union stooges and first nation lumberjacks.
I want to be a Mountie and lend a stalwart hand.
I want to be a Mountie, 'cause we always get our man.

I want to be a Mountie, and ride a haughty steed;
And wear my raiment proudly, blood-red of cast and deed.
I want to be a Mountie, and rise to high command.
I want to be a Mountie, 'cause we always get our man.

I want to be a Mountie, it's both my right and choice;
I want to state it loudly and give my song a voice.
I want to be a Mountie, a line's drawn in the sand.
I want to be a Mountie, 'cause we always get our man.

I want to be a Mountie, I'll shout it, till I'm hoarse;
Until my lung is drained by tongue now breathless in remorse.
I want to have some gravity, to take a moral stand.
I want to be a Mountie, 'cause I always get my man.
