Matt Andersen - Alberta Gold lyrics
Your rating:
We left for Alberta, left the east coast Followed the clouds running west The highway was long and worn by other fools Fools like us I guess We could’ve worked a job closer to home But never get far ahead We're out here just long enough to pay our debt But it hasn’t happened yet Alberta gold It's a story we all know Alberta gold, Alberta gold Dark black as the coal There's money in the air, there's cracks in the street The devil's out on the town He'll buy us a drink and fill our cup We're pulling his blood from the ground Alberta gold It's a story we all know Alberta gold, Alberta gold Dark black as the coal There's no more boats left in the bay No young cowboys home on the range We've been going flat out on a three week stint We've been working ourselves to the bone Now we're gonna take a break for just a little while And catch our flights back home Alberta gold It's a story we all know Alberta gold, Alberta gold Dark black as the coal Alberta gold It's a story we all know Alberta gold, Alberta gold Dark black as the coal There's no more boats left in the bay No young cowboys home on the range
