I don't walk slow
I just want to be alone
For the rest of the weekend
On a frozen prairie road
I know that you'll come for me
But I don't want your company
Alberta got the best of me
But I don't know where to go
So forgive my sins
For I don't know how to live
Oh my dear where have you been?
I know we should hang out
I know we should be friends
I know that we should live together
In a house in Edmonton
But our dirty lives
Dirty hands, all the time
Rolling wheels and tired eyes
We're alright, we're alright
So don't walk slow
Run from this home
I don't want you to go
So forgive my sins
I don't know how to live
Send me back to Alberta
On the silent wind
So forgive my sins
I don't know how to live
Send me back to Alberta
I'll be home again
