lyrics

Move a little this way
Just a little from that
Some place west of Medicine Hat
All we gotta do is drive
Somewhere east of the Frank Slide
Stop and take a photograph
It's such a shame
One after the other
There's another
Forgotten, run down, prairie town
With a funny little name.

Same old sky
Virgin soil
Moist or dry

It's a ready-made house for you and me
The crops will drink from Chin Coulee
A public utility that bears our name
A civic compartment
A department just for snow and rain

Same old sky
Virgin soil
Moist or dry

And we're counting down
By prairie town
Remembering houses

Same old sky
Virgin soil
Moist or dry
Take root or fly away

Propellers drown
The screams and sounds
Warning him
To clear the wires

It's ready-made yet fancy free
A house for you, a farm for me
We'll have our very own family
We'll double down on Alberta

Three girls and two boys
They'll give us love and so much joy
There will be wheat and corn and soy
We'll double down on Alberta
