Views: 407


Description:
The song is about a boy in Vancouver Canada missing an old flame from his home town of Timmins ON. Canada. So ( WHY NOT ) she Shania Twain, the girl in the song? It could be her? Tongue in cheek of course. The Girl From Timmins Oh carry me to North Ontario It's my farewell and time to move along I fell in love with old Vancouver Someday she'll reach for me and I'll be gone When the liquor's good down goes the whiskey The only way I know to mend this cowboy's pride So freight train blow your lonesome whistle And sing for me that Hobo Bill's last ride Chorus: And Lord Oh! how I miss that girl from Timmins And how I miss those kisses I love best The taste of wine that night and her affection Haunt me taunt me in these warm Vancouver rains Narrate: You know it's hard for a man sometimes to face the truth, "Bout how he man-handled yesterday, where he's at to-day, And where he's headed tomorrow. If only I'd a listened a little more, perhaps, she'd still be with me now. Well I guess I'll hock this ol guitar for a train ticket home, get me a job in the mine, save my money, and maybe buy a brand new pick-up truck Who knows, she might take this old guitar picker back. In the meantime well, it's another town, a different girl, same old song For bookings and personal appearances paulhenryd@yahoo.com Words & Music Paul Henry Dallaire Paul Henry Pub.Work # 72137927 & # 1002175 SOCAN.CA / Society of authors ,composers and music publishers of Canada U.S.Rep ASCAP Listen to the guitar stylings and steel playing of my brother Gerry Dallaire of Timmins.
