lirik lagu the navigators (canada) - welcome to the rock
[verse 1]
welcome to the townies
and the come from aways
welcome to the locals
who have always said they’d stay
my father’s father’s father
crashed his ship into this rock
heaven and h~ll don’t matter much
’cause it’s here i’m stuck
welcome to the rock
welcome to newfoundland
it’s farther to manhattan
than it is to ireland
they say no man’s an island
but an island makes a man
especially when one comes
from one like newfoundland
[refrain]
i’m an islander
i am an islander
i’m an islander
i am an islandеr
i’m an islander
i am an islander
i’m an islander
i am an islandеr
[verse 2]
welcome to the wildest weather
that you’ve ever heard of
where everyone is nicer
but it’s never nice above
’cause it’s mousy or it’s misty
or it’s muddy or it’s scad
and when it’s finally sunny
it’s a sign it’s getting bad
welcome to the rock
welcome to newfoundland
the drunkest fellas in the room
are playing in the band
welcome to the farthest place
you’ll get from disneyland
fish and chips and shipwrecks
this is newfoundland
[instrumental break]
[verse 3]
welcome to the land
where the winters tried to k!ll us
and we said
we will not be k!lled!
welcome to the land
where the waters tried to drown us
and we said
we will not be drowned!
welcome to the land
where we lost our loved ones
and we said
we will still go on!
welcome to the land
where the winds tried to blow
and we said no!
[bridge]
in the winter, from the water
through the wind
if a stranger ends up at our door
we welcome them in!
we welcome them in!
[refrain]
i am an islander!
[verse 4]
welcome to the cod
and to the trees and to the fog
and to the ferries and the berries
and the failing fisheries
and to kitchen parties
the ones departed
in our hearts
we know you’ll never
leave this little bit of heaven
where we started
to the down
and the out of town on quads
(welcome to the rock, welcome to newfoundland!)
and thanks to god we are the poorest
(welcome to the rock, welcome to newfoundland!)
but the richest where it counts
(welcome to the rock, welcome to newfoundland!)
and to the st. john’s girls
(welcome to the rock)
with their sails unfurled
to our friends at the end of the world
we say (welcome)
welcome to the rock!
