Gordon Lightfoot - Alberta Bound lyrics

The Chinook wind is a-movin' in

Tomorrow night I'll be Alberta bound

Though I've done the best I could

My old luck ain't been so good and

Tomorrow night I'll be Alberta bound

No one-eyed man could e'er forget

The Rocky Mountain sunset

It's a pleasure just to be Alberta bound

I long to see my next of kin

To know what kind of shape they're in

Tomorrow night I'll be Alberta bound

Alberta bound, Alberta bound

It's good to be Alberta bound

Alberta bound, Alberta bound

It's good to be Alberta bound

Oh the skyline of Toronto

Is somethin' you'll get onto

But they say you've got to live there for a while

And if you got the money

You can get yourself a honey

A written guarantee ta make you smile

But it's snowin' in the city

And the streets and brown and gritty

And I know there's pretty girls all over town

But they never seem ta find me

And the one I left behind me

Is the reason that I'll be Alberta bound

Alberta bound, Alberta bound

It's good to be Alberta bound

Alberta bound, Alberta bound

It's good to be Alberta bound

It's good to be Alberta bound
