From the rolling fields of wheat, to the busy city streets
There is a feeling and a spirit all our own
True North strong and free, stand on guard you and me
From the east to the west we roam
This is our home
From Norman Wells at the top and all the way to the rock
Theres a wind thats always blown
From down Summerside to the Queen Charlotte Islands
There is a way of life weve always known
This is our home...This is our home
Ive seen the Northern lights dancing over Yellowknife.
While standing in the middle of a field
From Pier 21 all the way to Flin Flon
Youve gotta cross that Canadian Shield
And no one knows winter like we know winter
Blowing in off of Lake Ontario
From the Ottawa canal to Bon Homme Carnival
There is a little place I love in the Gatineaus
With a covered bridge and a swimming hole
This is our home...This is our home
From Portage and Main to Yonge and Queen
And every street corner in between
No matter where you go in this rugged land
There is one thing we all understand
Every woman, every child and man
8:30 Newfoundland
8:30 Newfoundland
8:30 Newfoundland
Way up in Peace Country and down east in Kings county
And clear across to Thunder Bay
Where Winnipeg feels like forever and Hope feels like never
Let alone out Campbell River way
And when you cross the border
And see a caribou on the quarter
Then and only then will you be home
Ive driven from the Peg to the Chuck
And Yankees call us Canucks
But together well never stand alone
Yeah, together well never stand alone
Yeah, forever the Maple Leaf will be flown
This is our home.... This is our home
This is our home.... This is our home
Tar sands in Fort Mac
Redwood strands in Kitimat
And down in the Shuswaps too
Ive seen midnight feel like high noon
From the Dome to Saskatoon
Theres Confederation bridge and Butternut Ridge
Sudbury and the Sault
Ive lived in the Lakeland, Ive been to the Badlands
Head Smashed In Buffalo Jump, too
Ive been snowed in for days on the Trans Canada Highway
And that was in the month of June
This Is our home
