My sister just had to leave her musician job because of some serious financial problems. I sent her this song and told her that I would a hundred percent become a pirate with her. Thanks for such a happy song.
Wow! Derina's voice is as powerful live as it is on the recording! Not many vocalists can boast that natural ability in the days of digital production!
Thank you so much for your kind words! Stay in touch - we have a brand new single releasing this Friday and a brand new album releasing in June 23rd! 💚
Cannot wait for you to get the recognition you deserve and absolutely blow up. Looking forward to a tour in the United States if that becomes reasonably possible in the near future🔥
Commenting to help the algorithm. I discovered you from Cassandracosplays post on Instagram of Cutthroat Jackie and I wound up here on your UA-cam channel.
our son's wedding is in a few days just found out about your Lancaster gig tomorrow Sorry to say there is no way we can drive the 5 hours and make the wedding preps, and see your show. If you know Simon Spalding thank him for my continued interest in folk music, over some 40 years
My 5 year old came across one of your songs on a google device. Now every day we all listen to your songs. Would love to see you make it to CA bay area some day.
I went to a festival to see a different band and it took I think three bars of her singing for me to fall absolutely in love. Her voice sounds even better in person, and her ability to project is incredible!
I became a fan of your guys music quite by accident because of my Spotify recommendation but all I have to say is thank you spotify for giving me such an enjoyable band to sing along with and have so much fun with
Great Song :-) :-) I used to be a farmer, and I made a living fine I had a little stretch of land along the CP line But times were hard and though I tried, the money wasn't there And the bankers came and took my land and told me "fair is fair" I looked for every kind of job, the answer always no "Hire you now?" they'd always laugh, "We just let twenty go!" The government, the promised me a measly little sum But I've got too much pride to end up just another bum. Then I thought, who gives a damn if all the jobs are gone? I'm gonna be a pirate on the river Saskatchewan! And it's a heave-ho, hi-ho, comin' down the plains Stealin' wheat and barley and all the other grains It's a ho-hey, hi-hey farmers bar yer doors When ya see the Jolly Roger on Regina's mighty shores Well, you'd think the local farmers would know that I'm at large But just the other day I found an unprotected barge I snuck up right behind them and they were none the wiser, I rammed their ship and sank it and I stole their fertilizer! A bridge outside of Moose Jaw spans a mighty river Farmers cross in so much fear their stomachs are a'quiver Cause they know that Tractor Jack is hidin' in the bay I'll jump the bridge and knock them cold and sail off with their hay! And it's a heave-ho, hi-ho, comin' down the plains Stealin' wheat and barley and all the other grains It's a ho-hey, hi-hey farmers bar yer doors When ya see the Jolly Roger on Regina's mighty shores Well, Mountie Bob he chased me, he was always at my throat He followed on the shoreline cause he didn't own a boat But cutbacks were a'coming and the Mountie lost his job So now he's sailing with us, and we call him Salty Bob! A swingin' sword, a skull and bones and pleasant company I never pay my income tax and screw the GST (Screw it!) Sailin' down to Saskatoon, the terror of the seas If you wanna reach the co-op, boy, you gotta get by me! 'Cause it's a heave-ho, hi-ho, comin' down the plains Stealin' wheat and barley and all the other grains It's a ho-hey, hi-hey farmers bar yer doors When ya see the Jolly Roger on Regina's mighty shores Well, pirate life's appealing but you just don't find it here I hear in North Alberta there's a band of buccaneers They roam the Athabaska from Smith to Fort McKay And you're gonna lose your Stetson if you have to pass their way! Well, winter is a'comin' and a chill is in the breeze My Pirate days are over once the river starts to freeze I'll be back in springtime but now I have to go I hear there's lots of plunderin' down in New Mexico! 'Cause it's a heave-ho, hi-ho, comin' down the plains Stealin' wheat and barley and all the other grains It's a ho-hey, hi-hey farmers bar yer doors When ya see the Jolly Roger on Regina's mighty shores It's a heave-ho, hi-ho, comin' down the plains Stealin' wheat and barley and all the other grains It's a ho-hey, hi-hey farmers bar yer doors When ya see the Jolly Roger on Regina's mighty shores When ya see the Jolly Roger on Regina's mighty shores
Saskatchewan version: Screw the GST Bristolian version: Screw the VAT future American version: Screw the IRS?? I think we need to work out the rhyming here.
I know you sing a few Canadian sea shanties - is there any reason why you haven’t you covered Northwest Passage yet? I *think* that song covers sailing through Canada to get to the Pacific with an end goal to get to China. It probably doesn’t *have* to be played/sung slow 😅

I found out about this band from a dear Canadian friend of mine
We're so glad you did💚 We have a new album dropping on June 23rd! If you like, you can pre-save it here: derinaharveyband.lnk.to/waves-of-home
Saskatchewan version: Screw the GST
Bristolian version: Screw the VAT
future American version: Screw the IRS?? I think we need to work out the rhyming here.
I know you sing a few Canadian sea shanties - is there any reason why you haven’t you covered Northwest Passage yet? I *think* that song covers sailing through Canada to get to the Pacific with an end goal to get to China. It probably doesn’t *have* to be played/sung slow 😅
We haven't tried that one yet! Maybe sometime though - great tune! Thanks for the suggestion!💚
What year is this when you can't say 'damn?' Damn.
I like this but I like captain tractors version more
Thanks! We love their version too!💚 Stay in touch - we have a brand new song & album dropping in June!
Lock up your triticale!
