Matt Andersen - Alberta Gold lyrics

We left for alberta, left the east coast Followed the clouds running west The highway was long And worn by other fools Fools like us i guess We could've worked a job closer to home But never get far ahead Now we're out here just long enough To pay off debt But it hasn't happened yet Alberta gold It's a story we all know Alberta gold, alberta gold Dark black as the coal There's money in the air There's cracks in the street The devil's out on the town He'll buy us a drink And fill our cup We're pulling his blood from the ground Alberta gold It's a story we all know Alberta gold, alberta gold Dark black as the coal There's no more boats left in the bay No young cowboys home on the range We've been going flat out On a three week stint We've been working ourselves to the bone We're gonna take a break For just a little while And catch our flights back home Alberta gold It's a story we all know Alberta gold, alberta gold Dark black as the coal There's no more boats left in the bay No young cowboys home on the range
