<font size="3"><strong>George From Moosonee<br />
</strong><font size="1">(all words and music by Don Charbonneau)</font><br />
<br />
<strong> When you’re travelling down that railway line<br />
And you get to the end of the line <br />
You’ll hear old George singing his song <br />
About a time that’s slipped on by <br />
<br />
He lives up there near the James Bay Coast <br />
Where the wild geese fly <br />
Where the artic wind just blows right in <br />
And chills you to the bone <br />
Ten miles from the salt water line <br />
<br />
I met old George in Moosonee<br />
A couple of years ago<br />
He was playing his guitar <br />
and singing some old tune<br />
from a time that's slipped on by<br />
down by the railway yard<br />
<br />
When you’re travelling down that railway track<br />
And you get to the end of the line <br />
You’ll hear old George singing his song <br />
About a time that’s slipped on by <br />
<br />
He lives up there near the James Bay Coast <br />
Where the wild geese fly <br />
Where the artic wind just blows right in <br />
And chills you to the bone <br />
Ten miles from the salt water line <br />
Ten miles from the salt water line<br />
Ten miles from the salt water line.<br />
<br />
