The Guess Who

{Spoken}

There's a province up in Canada that's right next door to ours.

It's called Saskatchewan. And, uh, in that province there's a

small town, uh, where nothing much ever happens, called

Saskatoon. This is a tune about that town. This is called

"Runnin' Back To Saskatoon".

------ harmonica ------



I been hangin' around gas stations

I been learnin' 'bout tires

I been talkin' to grease monkeys

I been workin' on cars



Moose Jaw saw a few, Moosomin too

Runnin' back to Saskatoon

Red Deer, Terrace and a Medicine Hat

Sing another prairie tune

Sing another prairie tune



I been hangin' around libraries

I been learnin' 'bout books

I been talkin' to playwriters

I been workin' on words, phrases



Moose Jaw saw a few, Moosomin too

Runnin' back to Saskatoon

Red Deer, Terrace and a Medicine Hat

Sing another prairie tune

Sing another prairie tune



I been hangin' around hospitals

I been learnin' 'bout dyin'

I been talkin' to heart doctors

I been workin' on disease



Moose Jaw saw a few, Moosomin too

Runnin' back to Saskatoon

Red Deer, Terrace and a Medicine Hat

Sing another prairie tune

Sing another prairie tune



This tune is home grown

Don't come from Hong Kong

This tune is home grown

Don't come from Hong Kong



I been hangin' around grain elevators

I been learnin' 'bout food

I been talkin' to soil farmers

I been workin' on land



Moose Jaw saw a few, Moosomin too

Runnin' back to Saskatoon

Red Deer, Terrace and a Medicine Hat

Sing another prairie tune

Sing another prairie tune



I been hangin' around camera stores

I been learnin' 'bout sight

I been talkin' to film makers

I been workin' on eyes



Moose Jaw saw a few, Moosomin too

Runnin' back to Saskatoon

Red Deer, Terrace and a Medicine Hat

Sing another prairie tune

Sing another prairie tune



This tune is home grown

Don't come from Hong Kong

This tune is home grown

Don't come from Hong Kong
