  Rabbit Pie Genealogy is extremely important on Prince Edward Island. My late father-in-law Gerald Handrahan from Christopher's Cross, just west of Tignish, was a famous 'tracer', and probably knew the background of every family in Prince County. With Larry Gorman's trials fresh in my memory, I try never to perform this song west of Summerside. Lyrics I went up to see Saint Gerald Just before my wedding day He's tracin' my ancestors So the priest will give the say There seems to be confusion Over who my mother was And if she's not my uncle I'll be married in the love Chorus: I'm a rabbit from St. Edwards Near St. Louis by the tracks I'm not a herring choker From the port of Mimmnigash I can take apart a car Make moonshine in a jar And if you don't like me Go to Hell! I've got a pretty cottage Way out on Kildare Cape It's made of sticks and buoys And refrigerator crates I sit out on my car seat In the latest tidal wear And if I miss a mortgage payment Cecil doesn't care Repeat Chorus End Players Unrecorded Copyright Wild Garden Music (SOCAN) |
