Johnny having just washed ashore in this strange new found land meets Squirt who talks about the local geography.

lyrics

ROCKIN’ THE ROCK

Johnny: Who says there’s no fun to be found in Newfoundland?
I bet he's never even been around the block.
I guess some people forget or just don’t understand
and they’re sure to be in for quite a shock
better sit up & listen. I'm gonna make it my mission
to be rock - rock - Rockin’ the Rock!

Squirt: How can they say there’s no fun to be found?
The signs are there just look at some of the names of our towns.
That alone should tell you how we all get around
Come By Chance, Conception Harbour, Heart’s Delight
Leading Tickles all the way to Paradise!
It’s where we’re rock - rock - Rockin’ the Rock!

Johnny: There’s a party in every kitchen
whiskey in a jar
squeeze-boxes and fiddles
where you’re getting your viddles
just think of where you are!

And we’re Rock-rock-Rockin’ the Rock
Don’t stop - Rock-Rockin’ the Rock
Til you drop - Rock-Rockin’ the Rock
and we’re Rock-rock-Rockin’ the Rock

They don’t know about it
still they’re trying to talk
and I’m Rock-rock-Rockin’ the Rock

Oh, yes I’m rockin’
Yes I’m Rockin’ the Rock!
