Blue Rodeo
The Hank Snow Song
There's a man a legend I know
A poet and writer of songs
Born in brooklyn Nova Scotia
A true blue Canadian boy
He sang of love's lost hiways
His big hit was called "Movin On"
It's Hank Snow the Singin Ranger
Liverpool's own pride and joy
Chorus:
Now there must be a place up in heaven
Where the sidewalks are all paved with gold
Boxcars and old silver engine
Where pickers and gone cowboys go
Where there's rhinestones and a stage like the Opry
And the Northern Lights lite up the show
Just to see Hank sing in God's choir
In a star studded blue rodeo
Verse;
Now Hank and his Rainbow Ranch Boys
Picked his flat-top like nobody could
He captured the heart of the American Dream
And yes sir he's been everywhere
Now each time I sing and play my guitar
And delightfully so for the crowd
I'll belt out "My Old Nova Scotia Home"
And somehow I can see Hank standin beside me pickin and a grinnin just playing along
