Saskatchewan

Fifteen hours of flight

A lifetime on my mind

Got no tears for crying

They've all been left behind

And like the world below me

Different colors and scattered lines

And there's no perfect ending

We just ran out of time

I'm going back to Saskatchewan

To put my mama in the ground

I'm going back to Saskatchewan

To my mama's little town

A prairie sky never dies

And that's where she called home

Pictures of a little girl

From a life I'd never know

The fields, they are a perfect gold

And the earth beneath them red

And this is where I'll lay her down

So much left unsaid

I'm going back to Saskatchewan

To put my mama in the ground

I'm going back to Saskatchewan

To my mama's little town

There's the church and the school yard

And the old drug store

And just like from those stories

That she had told me before

The fields, they are a perfect gold

And the earth beneath them red

So this is where I'll lay her down

And send my mama off to bed

I'm going back (Going back) to Saskatchewan (Back)

To put my mama in the ground

I'm going back (Going back) to Saskatchewan (Back)

And that's where I'll be found

I'm going back to Saskatchewan

To my mama's little town
