my northern town - phyllis sinclair lyrics

standing on the platform, waiting for the “get*on*board”
time to head back to my northern town
conductor waiting for the sign to load the hudson bay line just can’t wait to hear the rattle down * take me home

i’ll watch the wheat fields rolling by, stare out at the prairie sky
wake up with the whistle whining low
we’ll pass the midway forеst stands, onto coastal lowlands
when i cross the nelson rivеr i will know * i’m near home

i’ll feel the wheels below my feet, two*step with my heart beat pounding out the rhythm of the bow
it’s neighbour playing st. anne’s reel, keeping time with his boot heals
friday night dance is the place to go * that’s my home

all i want is my northern town, where the wild wind blows
feel the cold rush through my bones, laugh with friends i know
c’mon call me on board, ride me northward home
c’mon make those wheel rolls, take my heart back home
i’ll feel the summer breeze, wrap my sweater close to me
standing on the grey back rocky shore
i’ll hear the cry of whiskey jack, walk along the river flats
smell my grandma’s cookin’ on the stove * i’ll be home

all i want is my northern town
