Short Native Grasses (Prairies of Alberta)
You can fail to achieve what you'd always believed You were capable of from the start You can lose all you have on the gambling ave And you'll know nothing true of your heart You can see and be seen with those holes in your jeans The prairies won't know what it means
The prairies of Alberta, they ain't never heard of The things that are keeping you down And the short native grasses don't care that the ashes Of your dreams match their dry shade of brown
You can follow the call out to old Montreal It may feel like you'll never get back You can do what you want on Boulevard St. Laurent It may feel like you've slipped through the cracks You can see and be seen with those holes in your jeans The prairies won't know what it means Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
The prairies of Alberta, they ain't never heard of The things that are keeping you down And the short native grasses don't care that the ashes Of your dreams match their dry shade of brown
When you fail to remember the gifts of September And all that's left is a manilla grass rope And that clean country wedding that you thought you'd be getting Seems delayed beyond reasonable hope You can see and be seen with those holes in your jeans The prairies won't know what it means
You can see and be seen With those holes in your jeans The prairies won't know what it means
