Jordan Burnell - My Home Town текст песни

(Verse 1)

From the Norwest is the
Cascades
There's all different
Landscapes
From man made lakes,
To land flat as Finnish
Pancakes

Somewhere off the
Trans-Canada highway
I stay with pride as
Big as our crime rate

Just across the
Bridge, we got a
Reservation
Our hobbies are
Hockey and getting
Wasted
Off of malted hops till
We can barely walk

And i don't know
Terry Fox, but I can
Show you where he
Stopped
On ice skates we hold
It down for Canada,
With the most pro
Hockey players per
Capital

Nowadays it seems
That's all that we talk
About
That's just the way it is
When we walk around
This hockey town

Standing at the top
Of Mount Mckay
Feeling proud to say,
That I'm from
Thunder Bay

(Pre-Chorus)

Now, from Current River
To Westfort
And everywhere in
Between
I wanna hear my whole
City sing with me...like...

(Chorus)

Round my hometown,
Memories are fresh
Round my hometown,
Memories are fresh
Round my hometown,
Memories are fresh
Round my hometown
Round my hometown

(Verse 2)

Shhh.. can I have
Some peace and quiet
For the sleeping giant
And the people that
Are still diving down in
Silver islet

The mosquitoes
They're still a bitin' at
The mission island

You see these people
Smiling but please
Keep in mind, it's...
Where people rely on
Paper mills to pay
Their bills
Work their whole life
And their jobs
Unstable still

I know it isn't fair, but
Start giving cheers
Cause we're still living
Here, still sipping
Crystal beer

Standing outside till
Our toes feel numb
Just waiting till that
Cold chill comes

The same place Steve
Stills met Neil Young
You can still hear them
In your ear drums

Superior by Nature
You might think it
Sounds cliche
