00:00Your hands in the open landscape
00:27A wild and acute frontier
00:35From a harsh and barren wasteland
00:43Through the grave and to the promised field
00:51You came, you tracked, you targeted
00:59Built the railroads and the schemes
01:07You take this land by enterprise
01:15By the power of your dreams, oh yes you do
01:21And you made this planet great
01:25And you made this nation blue
01:29And you lost your people too
01:33Like the rockets to the moon
01:44From beyond the coasts of fire land
01:52And the heavy dealing chores
02:00With the forgotten, the chosen ones
02:06What a ride from your open door
02:14And you made this planet great
02:18And you made this nation blue
02:22And you lost your people too
02:26Like the rockets to the moon
02:32Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
02:39Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
02:47Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
02:56Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
03:03There's a town in Nova Scotia
03:12They say the windows, they touch the sky
03:20Across the pine, the shingard's close
03:28Because in this garden flowers die away
03:36And still the woman's diva he does
03:44And your blood-red brothers walk the plain
03:52But where they glean, oh, a candle still burns
04:00A prayer from a broken tomb away
04:07And you made this planet great
04:11And you made this nation blue
04:15And you lost your people too
04:19Like the rockets to the moon
04:24Here we go!
04:26Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
04:34Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
04:41Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
04:49Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
05:04Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
05:11Like the rockets to the moon
05:15Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
