lyrics

CHORUS 1
We’re gonna take back this country
We’re gonna take back this land
We’re gonna bring back our
democracy
And build Canada again

We’re gonna take back this country
We’re gonna take back this land
We’re gonna bring back the heart
and soul
Of Canada again

VERSE 1
Haven’t we had enough
Haven’t we had our fill
Hasn’t it been too long
Livin’ on Corporate time
Feedin’ the bottom line, yeah but

We know where we’re going
We know what to do
We will stand together
Because our love is strong
It’s gonna carry us on

CHORUS 2
We’re gonna take back this country
We’re gonna take back this land
We’re gonna bring back our
democracy
And build Canada again

We’re gonna take back this country
We’re gonna take back this land
We’re gonna bring back the heart
and soul
Of Canada again, again.....

VERSE 2
Oh Canada
We stand on guard for thee
Oh Canada
From sea to sea
To shinin’ sea

From deep blue lakes & rivers
From towering Mountain peaks
Over rollin’ hills and open plains
The voices ring
I hear the people sing

CHORUS 3
We’re gonna take back this country
We’re gonna take back this land
We’re gonna bring back our
democracy
And build Canada again

We’re gonna take back this country
We’re gonna take back this land
We’re gonna bring back the heart
and soul
Of Canada again

We’re gonna take back this land
