Biography:
Real McKenzies is a Celtic punk band founded in Vancouver, Canada in 1992, described as "a guitar-and-bagpipe wailing Celtic punk rock-and-roll". They have set themselves apart from other punk bands by including bagpipes in all of their studio albums and at most of their concerts, much like the similar bands Dropkick Murphys and Flatfoot 56. Their current piper, Matt MacNasty, has been with the band since its release of "Loch'd and Loaded" in 2001.

D G
a noble whale ship and commander
D Bm
called the Catalpa, they say
D G
she sailed into Western Australia
D A D
and took six poor Fenians away
D G
so come all you screw warders and jailers
D Bm
remember Perth regatta day
D G
take care of the rest of your Fenians
D A D
or the Yankees will steal them away
D G
you kept them in Western Australia
D Bm
till their hair it began to turn grey
D G
when a Yank from the States of America
D A D
came out here and stole them away
D G
now all the Perth boats were a-racing
D Bm
and making short tacks fot the spot
D G
but the Yankee she tacked into Fremantle
D A D
and took the best prize of the lot
D G
so come all you screw warders and jailers
D Bm
remember Perth regatta day
D G
take care of the rest of your Fenians
D A D
or the Yankees will steal them away
D G
the Georgette armed with bold warriors
D Bm
went out the poor Yanks to arrest
D G
but she hoisted her star-spangled banner
D A D
saying you'll not board me i guess
D G
so remember those six Fenians colonial
D Bm
and sing o'er these few verses with skill
D G
and remember the Yankee that stole them
D A D
and the home that they left on the hill
D G
so come all you screw warders and jailers
D Bm
remember Perth regatta day
D G
take care of the rest of your Fenians
D A D
or the Yankees will steal them away
