Biografia:
The Pacific Northwest may not be the first place you would expect to hear rollicking Celtic, Folk or World music, but The Town Pants are determined to change that. The Vancouver, Canada– based band combines aspects of Irish traditional, acoustic pop, roots Americana, even Australian and Mexican influences, to create their own unique brand of “West Coast Celtic.” Armed with a pawnshop’s worth of musical instruments, The Town Pants play songs that appeal to young and old alike.

My Rum Runner - The Town Pants
Capo 4
G C G
With prohibition on you can make a tidy sum
C D
a sturdy craft a few good hands the guts to run the rum
C G
the thirsty pay handsomely for a measly little tot
C D
but you'll pay as much in prison if you happen to get caught
G C G
I have a handsome Captain, the bravest on the sea
C D
When he makes his fortune he's gonna marry me
C G
In his line of work he could simply disappear
C D
My looks won't last forever, to me it's plain and clear
G C G
Chorus: My rum runner is going out to sea
C D
I don't know if he'll come back to me,
G C
don't shed a tear of sorrow for early tomorrow
G C D G
I'll have a lovely boson here taking care of me
My captain always says have a backup plan
I've taken matters so to speak into my own hands
to find a good substitute to take care of me
if my captain goes to prison or perishes at sea
The master at arms has great hands as well
the mute young cabin boy would never kiss and tell
I've even had a lad or two from the lower deck
they can't support me properly it never hurts to check
Chorus
I've made the rounds and all I've found
are rogues and rakes and drunks
men who don't own anything but the contents of their trunks
not a one can stand up to my Johnny gone to sea
I've just heard he's made it safe he's coming back to me
Maybe now he has enough to take me down the aisle
I'll live with my captain in luxury and style
but if he's not ready to settle down with me
I'll start my search again when he goes out to sea
