North Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The east has the Englishmen
And the rising sun
The west has the open plains
And how they were won

On Independence Day
For what it's worth
You can ring those southern belles
I'm heading north

[Chorus]
Up were the rushing rivers run and salmon leap
I could even get there in my sleep
Give me the ice and snow
Let me go north

[Verse 2]
So run up a banner and
We'll stand underneath
They'll give you a starry flag
For one with a leaf

I'm on the borderline
I jump back and forth
There's nothing to stop me now
I'm heading north

[Chorus]
Up where the polar bears and moose and geese will play
Some of them address you en francais
Give me the ice and snow
Let me go north

[Bridge]
So I must leave you all
Alas and alack
And though we are parting now
I'll always come back

So as the compass points
That's where I'll be
But if you could only see
The perfection of north

[Outro]
It's somewhere I will always carry in my heart
A place when dreams begin and life can start
Who cares what people know?
Let me go north
Who cares what people know?
Let me go north
