Alberta Bound (1988 Version)

[Verse 1]
Oh, the prairie lights are burnin' bright
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
And tomorrow night I'll be Alberta bound

[Chorus]
Alberta bound, Alberta bound
It's good to be Alberta bound
Alberta bound, Alberta bound
It's good to be Alberta bound

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Alberta bound, Alberta bound
It's good to be Alberta bound
Alberta bound, Alberta bound
It's good to be Alberta bound

[Verse 2]
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
With a written guarantee to make you smile
But it's snowin' in the city
And the streets are brown and gritty
And I know there's pretty girls all over town
Which never seem to find me
And the one I left behind me
Is the reason that I'll be Alberta bound

[Chorus]
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
