Long Gone To Saskatchewan - Corb Lund[00:00:00]
Well I'm long gone to Saskatchewan[00:00:00]
Long gone to saskatchewan[00:00:03]
Where the gettin's good if you're gettin' gone[00:00:06]
I'm gonna put my boots and my hat back on[00:00:08]
'Cause I'm long gone to saskatchewan[00:00:10]
Long gone to saskatchewan[00:00:13]
Well it's a hell of a battle to try to raise cattle[00:00:18]
In the prettiest place on the hoof[00:00:21]
Oil refiners and lot sub dividers[00:00:23]
Got land prices right through the roof[00:00:25]
They got value's distorted and my brow's all contorted[00:00:29]
With the words that the banker just wrote[00:00:31]
Me and the missus we love the cow business[00:00:34]
Took jobs just to keep us afloat[00:00:36]
The old lady's a waitress in three different places[00:00:40]
And still can't afford her own car[00:00:42]
I've been drivin' grader I'm a smooth operator[00:00:44]
Wonderin' where all the gravel roads are[00:00:47]
I like alberta but dang ain't ya hearda[00:00:50]
How much it can cost to buy oats[00:00:53]
I'll always love her and think kindly of her[00:00:55]
But I got no money left over for smokes[00:00:57]
Well I'm long gone to saskatchewan[00:01:01]
Long gone to saskatchewan[00:01:03]
Where the gettin's good if you're gettin' gone[00:01:05]
I'm gonna put my boots and my hat back on[00:01:08]
Adios goodbye farwell so long[00:01:10]
I'm long gone to saskatchewan[00:01:12]
Long gone to saskatchewan[00:01:15]
She's a little bit flatter but the cows are as fatter[00:01:21]
So I think I'm gonna get me a tent[00:01:23]
'Cuz I can buy up an acre beside a nice lake here[00:01:25]
For it costs me home to just rent[00:01:28]
Sure the winters are tough and roads get rough[00:01:31]
When might have to feed a bit more[00:01:34]
And it's further to ship'em but damned if it isn't[00:01:36]
Good cow country this that's for sure[00:01:38]
I can miss my foothills here and still drink my pilsner[00:01:42]
And b*tch and complain and surmise[00:01:44]
About missin' the mountain but hey look who's countin'[00:01:46]
My place here is five times the size[00:01:49]
Well I'm long gone to saskatchewan[00:01:52]
Long gone to saskatchewan[00:01:55]
Where the gettin's good if your gettin' gone[00:01:57]
I'm gonna put my boots and my hat back on[00:01:59]
Adios goodbye farewell so long[00:02:02]
I'm long gone to saskatchewan[00:02:04]
Long gone to saskatchewan[00:02:07]
Now I gotta give honours to stompin' tom connors[00:02:29]
For roll on saskatchewan first[00:02:31]
And hus put his toque on in long gone to the yukon[00:02:34]
Figured he owed us a verse[00:02:36]
But I've been comin' out bringin' my t shirts and singin'[00:02:39]
To my good eastern neighbours so long[00:02:42]
You put up with dumb jokes[00:02:44]
About your province and so I figured[00:02:45]
Hey I owed you a song[00:02:47]
Well I'm long gone to saskatchewan[00:02:50]
Long gone to saskatchewan[00:02:53]
Where the gettin's good if you're gettin' gone[00:02:55]
Gonna put my boots and my hat back on[00:02:57]
Raise my cows like my grand daddy done[00:02:59]
Where the birch trees grow and the sharp tail roam[00:03:02]
Adios goodbye farewell so long[00:03:04]
I'm long gone to saskatchewan[00:03:07]
Long gone to saskatchewan[00:03:09]
Long gone[00:03:13]
Long gone[00:03:15]
Long gone to saskatchewan[00:03:17]
