Lyrics
I COME FROM A COUNTRY JUST ABOVE THE FORTY-NINE
IT?S A PLACE I CALL HOME AND PROUD TO CALL IT MINE
IF YOU?RE GONNA SPEAK THE LANGUAGE
DOESN?T MATTER WHAT YOU SAY
ENGLISH OR FRENCH BE SURE YOU END IT WITH AN EH?
THE PEOPLE ARE PROUD AND NOT AFRAID TO COME FORTH AND SAY
GOD I LOVE THIS COUNTRY CALL THE GREAT WHITE NORTH
CHORUS
WE LOVE WHO WE ARE AND EVERYTHING YOU SEE
WE ARE OF THE TRUE NORTH STRONG AND FREE
THE PEOPLE ARE PROUD AND NOT AFRAID TO COME FORTH AND SAY
GOD I LOVE THIS COUNTRY CALL THE GREAT WHITE NORTH
IN THE WINTER WHEN IT SNOWS AND ICE BEGINS TO FORM
YOU GRAB THE ONE YOU LOVE AND YOU TRY AND KEEP EM WARM
THE WINTER NIGHTS ARE LONG BUT NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE
THE ONLY TIME YOU NOTICE IS WHEN YOU?RE COMIN? UP FOR AIR
THE PEOPLE ARE PROUD AND NOT AFRAID TO COME FORTH AND SAY
WE?RE LOVIN IN THIS COUNTRY CALL THE GREAT WHITE NORTH
CHORUS
FROM THE CITIES TO THE COUNTRY
FROM THE EAST COAST TO THE WEST
WE MAY NOT BE THE BIGGEST BUT I TELL YA WE?RE THE BEST
WE GOT IT ALL TOGETHER AND WE?RE DOIN? JUST FINE
WE DON?T NEED MUCH JUST TO HAVE A GOOD TIME
THE PEOPLE ARE PROUD AND NOT AFRAID TO COME FORTH AND SAY
GOD I LOVE THIS COUNTRY CALL THE GREAT WHITE NORTH
CHORUS TWICE
