Canadian Star
Same old crazy weather
Same old stars in the same old
Canada sky tonight
Tried to write a letter
But I can't get it right, I can't get it right
I was goin' nowhere
Just an innocent victim
Lookin' for one more crime
You rode out of nowhere
With your hooks and your lines, your riddles and rhymes
Oh, Northern radio
Spin those lies into gold
All too soon, I confess
Tellin' you yes
I keep thinking of you
Don't you ever get tired of
Runnin' my friend
If I said I love you
Well, is that such a sin? I'd say it again...
Where you runnin' now, boy?
With your belles and your beaus 'n
Hearts that you stole away
Sing it for them, cowboy
How you just couldn't stay
You just couldn't stay
Same old crazy weather
Same old wondering where in the crazy ol' world you are
Someone tried to catch you
You were fallin' too hard, Canadian Star
Canadian Star
