America My Home
I knew America, she was just a child
Her love astounded me, it haunts me still
They say that I'm a fool, but I knew her majesty
When she was in her prime

A queen of modern gold
of silver and of green

I knew her playmates, I knew her buffalos
I knew her people, up, true and smiles
To me it's always real, your shade's over now
I see her joke and fun

And smog and mudded wheat
I know the way she feels

I knew America before the fever came
and raped her forests and fowled her air
Her love was everywhere and I'll remember
They served my motherland

When I'm beyond the stars
My country and my love
My mother and my land
America my home

Qu'appelle Valley, Saskatchewan
You can travel all alone
You can travel all alone
Or you can come along with me
Walk the old way
heyo ha heya

Wrap me in your blanket dance me around
Wrap me in your blanket dance me around
Take me back to where my heart belongs
Qu'appelle Valley, ho Saskatchewan
Qu'appelle Valley, ho Saskatchewan

You can travel all alone
You can travel all alone
Or you can come along with me
Walk the old way
heyo ha heya

Starwalker
Starwalker he's a friend of mine
You've seen him looking fine
He's a straight talker
He's a Starwalker
Don't drink no wine
ay way hey o heya

Wolf Rider she's a friend of yours
You've seen her opening doors
She's a history turner
She's a sweet grass burner
And a dog soldier
ay hey way hey way heya

Holy light guard the night
Pray up your medicine song
Straight dealer
You're a Spirit Healer
Keep going on
ay hey way hey way heya

Lightning Woman, Thunderchild
Star soldiers one and all oh
Sisters, Brothers, and all together
Aim straight, Stand tall

Starwalker he's a friend of mine
You've seen him looking fine
He's a straight talker
He's a Starwalker
Don't drink no wine
ay way hey o heya
