The East has the Englishmen and the rising sun
The West has the open plains and how they were won
On Independence Day, for all it's worth
You can ring those southern belles, I'm going North
Up were the rushing rivers run and salmon leap
I could even get there in my sleep
Give me the ice and snow
Let me go North
So run up a banner and we'll stand underneath
You gave me a starry flag for one with a leaf
I'm on the borderline, I jump back and forth
There's nothing to stop me now, I'm heading North
Up where the polar bears and moose and geese will play
And some of them address you en français
Give me the ice and snow
Let me go North
And so I must leave you all, alas and alack
And though we are parting now, I'll always come back
So as the compass points, that's where I'll be
But if you could only see the perfection of North
It's something I will always carry in my heart
A place when dreams begin and life can start
Who cares what people know?
Let me go North
Who cares what people know?
Let me go North
