Lyrics

I travel on the train
Across the land our fathers walked to build a way to get back home
In all its majesty
Bound by countryside of green and blue the rivers always flow
From the Maritimes
O?er the shield, across the prairies up into the mountains high
And in another time
Cities made of steel and concrete never ran along the line

And home is anywhere along the line
And I don?t know what I might find
Along the line

I leave the New Found Land
From Shoal Harbour to the island of Cape Breton I will stand
From Thorburn I will ride
I look to Skinner?s Pond, it?s hidden on the rock of PEI
St. Lawrence flowing strong
Past McGivney over her then on to Tashereau I?ve gone
Smooth Rock welcomes me
Casa Loma?s where I met a girl for whom I long to see

And home is anywhere along the line
And I don?t know what I might find
Along the line

The lake on Thunder Bay
Lost the Edmund and the 29 men working on the day
Find a golden sea
Across the Red Bridge flowing out to where the Soddy?s stood so free
The flat land?s flat you see
And dogs will run away for three days til in sight they?re out of reach
Head for Calgary
Before the mountains rise up to the sky where anyone can see

And home is anywhere along the line
And I don?t know what I might find
Along the line

I look out endlessly
On my way to Hope to see if Ogopogee?s watching me
Rest in Eagles? Pass
Where they drove the last spike deep into the ground and found a way
To travel sea to sea
Across the land our fathers walked to build a way to get back home
In all its majesty
Bound by countryside of green and blue the rivers always flow

And home is anywhere along the line
And I don?t know what I might find
Along the line
