This Is My Prairie
Corb Lund and the Hurtin' Albertans

(*Lund, Harry Stinson)


This is my prairie, this is my home

I'll make my stand here and I'll die alone

They can drill, they can mine o'er my smouldering bones

Cuz this is my prairie, this is my home


The water is poison, my calves are all dead

My children are sick and the aquifer's bled

They want a big pipeline right thru Pop's grove

This is my prairie, this is my home


I can't blame the riggers or the guys drivin' truck

For feedin' their families and makin' a buck

But take a close look at the stock that you own


Cuz' this is my prairie, this is my home


I don't got the money that lawyers can buy

I don't got my own government's laws on my side

But I got this old rifle that my grand daddy owned

And this is my prairie, this is my home


This is my prairie, this is my home

I'll make my stand here and I'll die alone

They can drill they can mine o'er my mouldering bones

Cuz this is my prairie, this is my home
