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 |
|
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 |
|
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 |
|
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 |
|
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'm clearly Canadian |
|
I'm clearly Canadian |
|
I'm clearly Canadian |
|
This country always gets the best of me! |
