Lyrics

Prairie Sky

Went back to see her family
Its been a long long long time
Farmland on the countryside
Back to her roots where she really bleeds

Between a sunset before bad dreams
Had her first baby at the age of seventeen
Left behind, a trailer park queen
Said she could make it on her own

Alberta mama, now don’t you cry
Your love unfolds like a wild rose under
Prairie skies
Prairie skies

On the first snowfall cold December night
Eleven years is a long long time
Throwing roses on a ground of white
Inside her memories he still come to life

Alberta mama, now don’t you cry
Your love unfolds like a wild rose under
Prairie skies
Prairie skies

Now moneys hard to come by and it don’t come quick
Blowing I owe you’s, blowing chances, hard times with her kids
Stand tall in times of doubt, shine when the colours run out
Winters gone, winters gone

Alberta mama, now don’t you cry
Your love unfolds like a wild rose under
Prairie skies
Prairie skies

Alberta mama, now don’t you cry
Your love unfolds like a wild rose under
Prairie skies
Prairie skies
