George Fox - The Night the Barn Burned Down lyrics

When I woke up in the Yukon I knew that I was living In a country that I could grow to love But I wandered out of Whitehorse Took a train down to Prince George I fianlly left but not without a shove Sailed day and night Around Vancouver Island, BC That's when the west coast Became a part of me That old full moon looked good From everywhere I stood From Hudson Bay All the way to the Rockies CHORUS: I'm clearly Canadian This country always gets the best of me I'm clearly Canadian Where stars burn bright Over snow so white Under northern lights, you can bury me I sailed the Arctic Ocean On my way to Nova Scotia And I got a taste of the midnight sun J'ai entendu le voila chante Je me suis mis a dancer In french or in english it was fun J'ai dit salut And I rode the old St. Lawrence out to sea Newfoundland was paradise to me That old moon looked good From everywhere I stood From Hudson Bay All the way to the Rockies CHORUS My memories of Cape Breton I won't soon be forgetting Going 'down north' on the Old Atlantic shore But I yearned for the flatland Sweet old Saskatchewan Had me heading west before too long Then I made some miles And caught the Blue Jays flying in the skydome But I'm finally back in my Alberta home That old full moon looked good From everywhere I stood From Hudson Bay All the way to the Rockies CHORUS I'm clearly Canadian (X3) This country always gets the best of me!
