lyrics

You were wearing a load bearing
tuxedo when you walked out of the door
It was December and I remember
you saying you were sick of being poor

Tired of failure, grain elevators
elevate you onto something more
You left Yorkton, you went to Portland
left everyone to even up the score

But there's something you should know
I could never really go

Saskatchewan, I could never love anyone else but you, girl
Saskatchewan, I'm no silo but I think you know, girl

You can see it through the peep-holes
Getting strength from many peoples

Please don't call me just a yuppie
cuz' I've got my interests out in town
I'm just wary of the prairie
see everything in shades of golden brown

Not to mention your condescension
we really ain't that folksy or too proud
So why pretend, and why extend
the time that's only spent hanging around?

Conversations with a mirror
Ain't never been any clearer

Saskatchewan, I could never love anyone else but you girl
Saskatchewan, I'd love to go but I need you so, girl

Saskatoon might be the answer
Regina don't do what we ask her

Saskatchewan, why would anyone live anywhere but you?
