Alberta Bound Lyrics – Paul Brandt

Sign said 40 miles to Canada
My truck tore across Montana
Ian Tyson sang a lonesome lullaby

And so I cranked up the radio
Cause there’s just a little more to go
For I’d cross the border at that Sweet Grass sign

I’m Alberta Bound
This piece of heaven that I’ve found
Rocky Mountains and black fertile ground
Everything I need beneath that big blue sky
Doesn’t matter where I go
This place will always be my home
Yeah I’ve been Alberta Bound for all my life
And I’ll be Alberta Bound until I die

It’s a pride that’s been passed down to me
Deep as coal mines, wide as farmer’s fields
Yeah, I’ve got independence in my veins

Maybe it’s my down-home redneck roots
Or these dusty ‘ol Alberta boots
But like a Chinook wind keeps coming back again
