Summary: Once there was a Mountie
And Fraser was his name-oh.
Once there was a Mountie
And Fraser was his name-oh.
Name-oh, name-oh,
Fraser was his name-oh.
He was owned by a deaf-half-wolf
And he dressed all in red-oh.
Red-oh, red-oh,
Dressed all in red-oh.
He tracked his father’s killer to Chicago
And there met a man named Ray-oh.
Ray-oh, Ray-oh,
There met a man named Ray-oh.
And that killer they did chase
In Ray’s car of bright green-oh.
Green-oh, green-oh,
Ray’s car of bright green-oh.
But that killer was killed
By the master planner-oh.
Planner-oh, planner-oh,
By the master planner-oh.
So Fraser chased the planner
Right back to Canada-oh.
Canada-oh, Canada-oh,
Back to Canada-oh.
And the Mountie got his man
And it was his father’s friend-oh.
Friend-oh, friend-oh,
His father’s friend-oh.
As that man was a Mountie too
Fraser was sent back to Chicago-oh.
Chicago-oh, Chicago-oh,
Sent back to Chicago-oh.
There Fraser and Ray had some adventures
And they captured many villains-oh.
Villains-oh, villains-oh,
They captured many villains-oh.
But then that Ray had to leave,
He had a duty to his country-oh.
Country-oh, country-oh,
Had a duty to his country-oh.
And so Fraser met a new Ray
With hair that was very spiky-oh.
Spiky-oh, spiky-oh,
Hair that was very spiky-oh.
And this Ray had a car that was black
And he seemed to be quite gay-oh.
Gay-oh, gay-oh,
Seemed to be quite gay-oh.
And Fraser and this shiny new Ray,
Who shall henceforth be called RayK-oh.
RayK-oh, RayK-oh
Henceforth be called RayK-oh.
They captured many villains too,
While encountering rubber-ducks-oh.
Rubber-ducks-oh, rubber-ducks-oh,
Encountering rubber-ducks-oh.
And the danger they shared,
It drew them ever closer-oh.
Closer-oh, closer-oh,
Drew them ever closer-oh.
But then the first Ray did return
On the trail of some nerve-gas-oh.
Nerve-gas-oh, nerve-gas-oh
The trail of some nerve-gas-oh.
And the three of them did meet
And there was a lot of confusion-oh.
Confusion-oh, confusion-oh,
There was a lot of confusion-oh.
And the bad guy Muldoon got away,
He flew home to Canada-oh.
Canada-oh, Canada-oh,
He flew home to Canada-oh.
Fraser and RayK gave chase,
Hanging on the wing of a plane-oh.
Plane-oh, plane-oh,
Hanging on the wing of a plane-oh.
And Muldoon was captured
At the bottom of a mine-shaft-oh.
Mine-shaft-oh, mine-shaft-oh,
Bottom of a mine-shaft-oh.
But this made Fraser and RayK sad
Because they did not wish to part-oh.
Part-oh, part-oh,
Did not wish to part-oh.
So they confessed their love for one another
And dog-sledded into the sunset-oh.
Sunset-oh, sunset-oh,
Dog-sledded into the sunset-oh.
And everyone else had a happy ending too,
Except for the bad-guys-oh.
Bad-guys-oh, bad-guys-oh,
Except for the bad-guys-oh.
