Lyrics

In the heart of the continent
An ancient rhythm flows through the land
Carved the trails that led me here
All the songs that called us out
Old traditions and word of mouth
Heard it calling from the East to the West
Took my roots on the old highway
Travelled for about two or three days
Wrote a song with a new sound
Look at me now, I’m Winnipeg bound!
It’s the socials at the hall
Watching Bombers playing ball
It’s the Sunday night cruise
Down Portage Avenue
It’s the Northern Lights
It’s the snowplows at night
It’s your parka and your toque
It’s the way you wear your boots
And it’s the sun!
It’s the sun!
It’s the rivers of life
From the north end of town
It’s the gathering place
This is Treaty One ground
It’s remembering Riel
It’s that tasty Crown Royal
It’s the Gateway to the West
It’s Metis, English and French
And it’s the sun!
Le soleil qui brille à l’horizon
Qui nous prend par la main quand l’hiver est long
It’s the sun!
Le soleil et toute sa lumière
Tous les mois de l’année dans un ciel ouvert
Une terre qui nourrit
On voit les traces de nos ancêtres dans la prairie
It’s Mr. Young and The Guess Who
It’s mosquitoes and canoes
It’s the harvest in the field
It’s another record year
It’s the Jets winning goal
It’s always -35 below
It’s the music and the vibe
Where our spirits come alive
It’s the sun!
It’s the sun on the prairie lifting up my soul
I was lost on the land but now I know
It’s the sun!
Le soleil qui brille à l’horizon
Qui nous prend par la main quand l’hiver est long
It’s the sun!
It’s the sun on the prairie lifting up my soul
I was lost on the land but now I know
It’s the sun!
Le soleil et toute sa lumière
Tous les mois de l’année dans un ciel ouvert
In the heart of the continent
An ancient rhythm flows through the land
Carved the trails that led me here
All the songs that called us out
Old traditions and word of mouth
Heard it calling from the East to the West
