Horses in the stable
on the door hangs the tack
I'll take what I can cause I know I can't come back
from the waters of the Skeena, out to Telegraph creek
Try as they will, they won't find the soul they seek
Out on the trapline
I feed my family night and day
Don't need a law man
Who won't agree with what I say
Ive got to leave Old Hazelton
If I stay they're going to do me in
Smoke lingers in the air
Liquor on the floor
A bottle of whiskey in and you know he still wants more
He's giving lip to everyone around
He's in a pool of blood on the edge of town

The Good 'ole Okanagan

Vancouvers filled with pill poppers and junkheads
and Im sick and tired of sleeping on 600 dollar bunk beds
I'm going to a place where I can rest my noddin'
That's the good ole' Okanagan
That Okanagan, Okanagan
Where all your worries and tour troubles will be forgotten
In the good old Okanagan
I hear the town of Whistler is a hell of a time
And I heard the ski in Revelstoke is pretty fine
But there's only one place where I'll be bringing my toboggan
That's the good ole Okanagan
Fort St. John is a dirty greasy mess
Where the liquor flows like water and the water tastes like H2S
if those oil towns have got you down-trodden
Head on to the good old Okanagan
