Be Canadian - 2020

Be Canadian, stand together. We'll get through this, if we try. Stay at home, and help your neighbour, there'll be victory, by and by. Every day we say good bye to so many as they die All alone we must perish, all alone we must cry Front line workers, we salute you. Hope you all can soon go home. And to you who give your life for us. Such bravery, never known. Not quite half through twenty twenty and already, we've all seen plenty. How can we go on each day? When will all this go away? Afraid my couch is getting worn out. Lately it don't feel the same. Oh I guess it never will without .. the good old hockey game Way down deep in the Covid blues. Hanging up our working shoes Heavy on our minds today, which relief pack shall we choose. Now the red meat's on the run and old Fort Mac has come undone. The barrel fell right through the floor. How can it go down some more? Those who served with such devotion and found the bottom of the ocean. We are honored by your deeds, as we drown in our emotion. Teach your children, if you can. With any luck, they'll understand. Then we'll all go to the couch, we'll go together hand in hand All the friends of Nova Scotia crying out with grief untold. How could any of us know how that story would unfold. Words of love not yet spoken echo now and ever more In our hearts and on our minds, as we slowly walk the floor Stay at home and help your neighbor. Maybe won't so many so many die. Stay at home and teach your children, there'll be victory, by and by.
