LYRICS For Prairie Town

Born and raised in a prairie town

Just a kid full of dreams

We didn't have much but an old radio

Music came from places we'd never been

Growing up in a prairie town

Learning to drive in the snow

Not much to do so you start a band

And soon you've gone as far as you can go

Winter nights are long, summer days are gone

Portage and Main fifty below

Springtime melts the snow, rivers overflow

Portage and Main fifty below

All the bands in a prairie town

Try to outdo the next in line

Learning records out of Liverpool

Dreams of England on their Minds

On the other side of Winnipeg

Neil and The Squires played the Zone

But then he went to play

For awhile in Thunder Bay

He never looked back and he's never coming home

Winter nights are long, summer days are gone

Portage and Main fifty below

Springtime melts the snow, rivers overflow

Portage and Main fifty below

Portage and Main fifty below

Just a band from a prairie town

Sometimes we'd drive from coast to coast

One call from LA and we'd pack and fly away

But in our hearts we're always prairie folk

Looking back at a prairie town

People ask me why I went away

To fly with the best, sometimes you have to leave the nest

But the prairies made me what I am today

Winter nights are long, summer days are gone

Portage and Main fifty below

Springtime melts the snow, rivers overflow

Portage and Main fifty below

Portage and Main fifty below

Winter nights are long, summer days are gone

Portage and Main fifty below

Springtime melts the snow, rivers overflow

Portage and Main fifty below

Portage and Main fifty below

Portage and Main fifty below

Portage and Main fifty below

Sorry, don't like this song at all. Dumb lyrics and no creativity. Waste of space.

For my money, this is the definitive version of "Prairie Town". When it first came on my car radio, I was totally captivated. It rang so true, I had to pull over to give it a proper listen. At the time, I didn't know who I was listening to, but I knew they had to be Canadian. I remember thinking, "Someone has finally done it - someone has finally captured a large part of the Canadian experience like no other song I've ever heard before". Congratulations Randy and Neil, and thanks.
