The 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 'Fore I 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 It 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 old Alberta boots But like a Chinook wind keeps comin' back again Oh, 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 It doesn't matter where I go This place will always be my home I have been Alberta-bound for all my life And I'll be Alberta-bound until I die ♪ Oh, and it doesn't matter where I go This place will always be my home I have been Alberta-bound for all my life
