Stompin' Tom Connors - To It and At It lyrics

rate me

There's a rainbow in Toronto

Where the Maritimers are told

They always get a pot full

But they never get a pot of gold

But they're at it and to it and to it and at it

You gotta tune your attitude in

If ya don't get at it when ya get to it

You won't get to it to get at it again

You won't get to it to get at it again

A guy from ol' New Brunswick

He couldn't even pay his rent

We don't know how he traveled

But we all know where he went

He was at it and to it and to it and at it

You gotta tune your attitude in

If ya don't get at it when ya get to it

You won't get to it to get at it again

You won't get to it to get at it again

A girl from ol' spud island

Old potatoe lips

She married a Newfoundlander

And they lived on fish & chips

But they were at it and to it and to it and at it

You gotta tune your attitude in

If ya don't get at it when ya get to it

You won't get to it to get at it again

You won't get to it to get at it again

A guy from Nova Scotia

He can't afford the train

He's sittin' on a street car

But he's east bound just the same

He's at it and to it and to it and at it

You gotta tune your attitude in

If ya don't get at it when ya get to it

You won't get to it to get at it again

You won't get to it to get at it again

A frenchman from the Gaspe

Said frogs don't like smog

So he hopped in a swamp with lilies

Where he lives in a hallow log

But he's at it and to it and to it and at it

You gotta tune your attitude in

If ya don't get at it when ya get to it

You won't get to it to get at it again

You won't get to it to get at it again

A guy from ol' Cape Breton

So lonesome he got stoned

He crawled into a suitcase

And someone mailed him home

But he's at it and to it and to it and at it

You gotta tune your attitude in

If ya don't get at it when ya get to it

You won't get to it to get at it again

He was at it and to it and to it and at it

You gotta tune your attitude in

If ya don't get at it when ya get to it

You won't get to it to get at it again

You won't get to it to get at it again
