lyrics

We left Toronto in a Town and Country van
On the 401 smoking up at the Holiday Inn
With one thing in sight
We left it all behind
Now we're in Nova Scotia
And we ain't ever going home

A lot of sleepless nights from Peterborough to Montreal
Singing and stomping staring at the bottom of a bottle
So many friendly faces
To keep us going
Now we're in Nova Scotia
And we ain't ever going home

Hey, Fisherman Jake, you need another cigarette?
"Been here for 92 days, sleeping on this here park bench"
All the best to you
We hope to see you soon
We're in Nova Scotia
And we ain't ever going home

We're heading out of town to give a final bow in Windsor, Ontario
Still smell the sea on my clothes, ya, I'll carry it with me back home
Better turn this van around
I left something in Halifax
We're in Nova Scotia
And we ain't ever going home
We're in Nova Scotia
And we ain't ever going home
We're back in Halifax
And it feels like home
We're in Nova Scotia
And we ain't ever going home
