Shania Twain – Northern Town (Letra & Video)

Northern Town – Shania Twain Letra

Dad pulls up to the bar, us kids wait in the car

While he has a beer

Then we stop at Dairy Queen

For chocolate-dipped ice cream in a cone

We don't dare forget the cherry blossom for Mom

Living in a northern town

Long, slow trains, gold veins in the ground

Rivers run high and I sleep to the sound

Oh, I wish you were still around

Uncle Sonny comes through the door

He can't walk anymore, falls into a chair

Asks if I mind, if I have the time

Could I cut his hair?

There's stale rye whiskey and Export 'A' cigarette smoke in the air

Living in a northern town

Long, slow trains, gold veins in the ground

Rivers run high and I sleep to the sound

Oh, I wish you were still around

We'll drive south till we run dry (drive south)

Hitchhike the rest of the way

We can sing songs in the subway tunnels (sing songs)

For bills and change (someday)

Someday that's what we'll do

When we have a few more bucks to our names

Oh, living in a northern town

Long, slow trains, gold veins in the ground

Rivers run high and I sleep to the sound

Oh, I wish you were still around

We're sitting under the willow

Wondering how far we will go

How cold it will get if we got wet?

Is it over our heads?

Oh, just so you know, I'm ready to go

Down if you stick around

Oh, living in a northern town

Long, slow trains, gold veins in the ground

Rivers run high and I sleep to the sound

Oh, I wish you were still around

Oh, living in a northern town

Long, slow trains, gold veins in the ground

Rivers run high and I sleep to the sound

Oh, I wish you were still around

I wish you were still around
