Alberta Bound
Written by - Gordon Lightfoot
From - Don Quixote
Oh, the prairie lights are burning bright
The Chinook wind is a moving in
Tomorrow night
I'll be Alberta bound
Though I've done the best I could
My old luck ain't been so good
And tomorrow night
I'll be Alberta bound

No one eyed man could e'er forget
The Rocky Mountain sunset
It's a pleasure just to be Alberta bound
I long to see my next of kin
To know what kind of shape they're in
An' tomorrow night
I'll be Alberta bound

Alberta bound, Alberta bound
It's good to be Alberta bound
Alberta bound, Alberta bound
It's good to be Alberta bound

Alberta bound, Alberta bound
It's good to be Alberta bound
Alberta bound, Alberta bound
It's good to be Alberta bound
			
Oh, the skyline of Toronto
Is somethin' you'll get onto
But they say you've got to
Live there for a while
And if you got the money
You can get yourself a honey
A written guarantee to make you smile
                
But it's snowin' in the city
And the streets are brown and gritty
And I know there's pretty girls all over town
Which never seem to find me
And the one I left behind me
Is the reason that
I'll be Alberta bound

Alberta bound, Alberta bound
It's good to be Alberta bound
Alberta bound, Alberta bound
It's good to be Alberta bound

It's good to be Alberta bound
