lyrics

Riding in the backseat makes me carsick
Make sure that your sister’s got a bucket
It’ll be a long drive
To your father’s side of the border

Superior, Lake Michigan
And Erie
An annual pilgrimage to prove our place
In the family

Stop at the Big Boy in Marquette
Can I get a root beer? Are we there yet?
Send a postcard from Christmas
Hit the truck stop in St. Ignace
Before we cross the Mackinac
And on through to the
Green tobacco fields of

Southern Ontario
Do you still love my father?
Ontario
Could you love a traitor’s daughter

Bowling five pin at the alley on the corner
Grab a donut from Tim Horton's
Get my accent back in order
Grandma’s elderberry pie
And grandpa’s yard sale finds
And by leaving time
I’m Canadian again

But Dad, do you ever get homesick?
How come they never visit?
And when you're working so hard
Are you just trying to forget?
Are you just trying to forget?

Ontario
Do you still love my father?
Ontario
Could you love a traitor's daughter?

Driving through the night
When I was older
It was my turn at the wheel
But Dad said move on over
Get in back, so I sat
And thought about how easily he falls asleep
When he’s reading, watching tv
Is it safe to shut my eyes

Oh God

The car rolled once
The car rolled twice
The car rolled…
The glass broke…
Before I heard the siren’s cry
I was sure that I had died

Riding in the backseat makes me nervous
Love, don’t bring it up it isn’t worth it

You’ve got to bury it deep
Bury it deep, bury it
Bury it deep, bury it deep
Bury it
Bury it deep, bury it deep
Bury it deep
Like your dad does
