[Verse 1]
I'm gonna move to Canada
Yeah, I've made up my mind
Leave everything behind
I'll catch a plane
Fly away from this rain
[Verse 2]
I'm gonna move to Canada
I'm gonna meet Neil Young
I just know we'll get along
Show up at his house
Convince him and his spouse
[Chorus 1]
I'll pick up my guitar and play
A couple of my songs
A couple of my songs
A couple of my songs
That I'll sing at the top of my lungs
[Verse 3]
I'm gonna move to Canada
Yeah, I've made up my mind
Leave everything behind
I'll catch a plane
Fly away from this rain
[Verse 4]
Mister Young will be impressed
And offer me a record deal
And tell me to call him "Neil"
We'll have a ball
Until Canada's too small
[Chorus 2]
Then I'll pack up my guitar and I
Will move to the US
I'll move to the US
I'll move to the US
To be a sensational success
[Verse 5]
I'm gonna move to Canada
Yeah, I've made up my mind
Leave everything behind
I'll catch a plane
Fly away from this rain
[Verse 6]
After Canada
The USA's a piece of cake
All the sales records I'll break
"The Best Thing Since The Beatles"
Is what magazines will write
[Chorus 3]
With my guitar and band, I will
Conquer every town
I'll conquer every town
I'll conquer every town
Me, the singing, rock'n roll clown
[Verse 7]
Still wanna move to Canada
But for now, I'll just stay here
I think it's best for my career
When I get home from the office
Where I've worked all my life
[Chorus 4]
I pick up my guitar and play
A couple of my old songs
A couple of my old songs
A couple of my old songs
And I think, "Damn, Neil Young
Would have loved these songs"
He would have loved these songs
[Outro]
Maybe next year
Maybe next year
Maybe next year
Maybe next year
Maybe next year
