Alberta
Composed by Mary Kieftenbeld
Verse 1
Flatlands, rollin’ plains
Clear blue skies, prairie rains;
A tapestry of colours in the fall.
Snow covered mountain tops,
Wheat fields, canola crops;
Alberta has it all.
Chorus
Alberta is calling me.
Home sweet home, it’s where I’m proud to be.
Alberta is calling me.
Livin’ right I’m feelin’ free.
Verse 2
First Nations built the land
Fur trade, way back then.
We’ve come a long way since that.
Agriculture, lumberjacks,
Oil derricks, natural gas;
There is no turnin’ back.
Chorus
Alberta is calling me.
Home sweet home, it’s where I’m proud to be.
Alberta is calling me.
Livin’ right I’m feelin’ free.
Bridge
Culture diverse as it can be.
This is the land of opportunity.
Welcoming friends, night and day.
That’s the way I pray Alberta stays.
