Hockeytown
My hometown is a hockeytown Out on the edge with nothing around The newspaper didn't have any news The Greyhound bus just rolled on through The center of town was a corrugated iron arena In all of my school days I didn't learn quick Thinkin' of the best way to tape my stick And how to score them goals like Gordie Howe The bite of the cold air on my face frozen fingers as I tie the laces Hockey's in my blood and hockey is my own true love
Chorus: I could hardly wait for Saturday I'd spend all day in a pickup game Arrive early and I go home late I did my dreamin' in my hockey skates Wayne Gretzky and Bobby Orr Were the pictures on my bedroom door Hockey cards by the crate I did my dreamin' in my hockey skates
Frozen lakes and frozen ponds Backyard rinks, we played 'em all Come on and throw your sticks in the middle Bring along a snow shovel Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Let's clear the ice and let's call it The Forum Minor leagues down in the trenches A high stick and seventeen stitches Crossin' my fingers the scouts get a look at me Sittin' on the bench brings me to to tears Foster Hewitt ringin' in my ears I can already hear the roar he shoots he scores!
Chorus
Everybody at home is gonna see me On hockey night on the CBC With Don Cherry and Ron Maclean The players and the Hall of Fame And all them Sutter boys from out in Viking I know one day I'll really go far I'll climb aboard the CPR And ride all the way down to Maple Leaf Gardens Way out there at center ice I'll hold the Stanley Cup up high Like I already did in my mind a thousand times
Chorus
