Fort McMurray ... (My Home Tonight)

Alone again tonight,
I can barely see,
I'm stuck out way up north in Fort McMurray.

My friends and family home,
I hope to see them soon,
But I don't know when I'll be coming home.

I can barely see
My friends and family anymore,
And I don't know when I
Will ever see that sun shine in the sky;
Fort McMurray is my home tonight.

I got my cheque today,
It's time to pay my bills,
It's Sunday now and I'm looking for my jigs.

I work six days a week,
I'm getting decent pay,
But I hope that I'm not stuck up here to stay.

'Cause I can barely see
My friends and family anymore,
And I don't know when I
Will ever see that sun shine in your eyes,
'Cause Fort McMurray is my home tonight.

I can barely see
My friends and family anymore,
And I don't know when I
Will see that Newfie sun shine in the sky,
'Cause Fort McMurray is my home tonight.
Fort McMurray is my home tonight.
Fort McMurray is my home tonight.

Note: Written for Ches' brother Scott who is currently in Fort McMurray, and dedicated to all those Newfies up in Fort Mac.
