| Lyrics |
Often on the weekend I'll jump in my car
I won't fill up the tank although I'm going far
And if somebody asks me if I'm going to a bar
I'll say I'm shopping ’cross the border in the usa
I don't go down there to buy my groceries
I respect our farmers and our factories
I don't believe that local means it's poor in quality
It's just our goddamn prices are too high(if he stays away for just two days)I'll get one hundred dollars duty-free
If it adds to more I won't claim it for(he won't declare the products if they're in his trunk)
Although it is canada that I call home
I don't cheer for the yankees when I'm in the dome
I didn't swell with pride during the desert storm
It's just that I don't want to pay the tax(it's just that he's too cheap to pay the tax)(yes, it's just like this, he's a loyalist)I'll only shop at malls that fly our flag(and he'll tell bob rae that he just won't pay)
Unless I need my unemployment benefits(get a job, get a job, get a job)
Now everyone is doing the same thing as me
They're doing what they can to beat the gst
They're lining up for miles at the duty-free
So I bought a jc penny's store in buffalo(so everybody come on down to buffalo)(cause if you stay away for just two days)
You'll get one hundred dollars duty-free
Though it's not at par it'll still go far
And it ends up in the pockets of a country man(it ends up in the pockets of a country man)
Oh, canada.
