Ron Hynes - No Change In Me video free download

A little slide show made from shots by Candace Owen. The shots were taken around Newfoundland.

The song is "No Change In Me", by Ron Hynes. It was co-written by Ron and Murray MacLauchlan. A song about Newfoundlanders leaving their homes even though they want to stay. They leave for better jobs and a bigger chance.

Thanks to Ron for being so nice. :) I won't trade the guitar. Hope to see you again really soon!

Lyrics:

You could shoot off a cannon

Down the middle of Bond,

and attract no attention in downtown St. John's.

This getting nowhere is getting to me

Wondering where can you go

To be all you can be

No regular Joe wants to pull up and go

Just to wind up homesick

Where there's no one you know

Just a smoke and a beer

And the sports on T.V.

Being sorry you left

With no chance but to leave

No change in the weather

No change in me

I don't want to leave

But you can't live for free

You can't eat the air

And you can't drink the sea

No change in the weather

No change in me

You could shoot off a cannon

From the top of Long's Hill

And a Gulliver's taxi might be all that you'd kill

We were promised the sun and the moon and the stars

We got weathered old clapboard

And salt rusted cars

So I'll join in the leaving like all of the rest

For Montreal, Calgary, Vancouver West

Lay down on the sidewalk

And kick off and die

Watch people not looking

As they hurry by

No change in the weather

No change in me

I don't want to leave

But you can't live for free

You can't eat the air

And you can't drink the sea

No change in the weather

No change in me

No change in me

I don't want to leave

but you can't live for free.

Down here, you can't live for free.

And you can't eat the air

and you can't drink the sea...

No change in the weather

no change in me.
