CHORUS:
I got myself a love a love of my own
my dancing shoes are all worn down
Someone who will cherish the vow that we make
hand me down my walking cane
Now the tall city woman's a Canadian treat
In praise of Tommy Jack and Princess Maggie
In Spring she wears a dress of Tulips fit for a Queen
the lady is my town
Verse:
She's got a heart of gold and romances with me
as we dance round and round
At the slopes of Kamiskotia we did a little ski
miss Timmins you wear the crown
Now in December we can skate and play shinny on the ice
with our friends across the river in Mattagami Heights
The Maple Leaves in Autumn yellow red n' green
the lady is my town
