up in the woods or goin' round' the bay
theres all kinds of places but the place we likes to get
is up on the highway in the gravel pit!

im happy.

Ya lucky duck, getting the long weekend off! Didn't know there was a song, seems we're a bit left out in Ontario, lol.

 

[Hannahbelle]

Apparantly we're left out in Quebec, too.
Love the first long weekend, will usually go camping, but thank god I didn't this time - cold and rainy!!!

Now here's a Canuck question: do you guys know the Log Driver's Waltz song?

 

[ToddB]

Well Matt, I was going to say Lakeside Park by Rush but the words that you have are different from their's.

Lakeside Park lyrics

Midway hawkers calling
'Try your luck with me'
Merry-go-round wheezing
The same old melody
A thousand ten cent wonders
Who could ask for more
A pocketful of silver
The key to heaven's door

Lakeside Park
Willows in the breeze
Lakeside Park
So many memories
Laughing rides
Midway lights
Shining stars on summer nights

Days of barefoot freedom
Racing with the waves
Nights of starlit secrets
Crackling driftwood flames
Drinking by the lighthouse
Smoking on the pier
Still we saw the magic
Was fading every year

Everyone would gather
On the twenty-fourth of May
Sitting in the sand
To watch the fireworks display
Dancing fires on the beach
Singing songs together...
Though it's just a memory
Some memories last forever

Now here's a Canuck question: do you guys know the Log Drvier's Waltz song?

Nope.
But I can sing you most of "I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay"!!!!!
