Folk and Traditional Song Lyrics:
Roll on Saskatchewan
Roll on, Saskatchewan
Roll on, Saskatchewan
Let my heart sing an old river song
As we journey back where I belong,
Where the wind comes to say
To the river each day,
"Roll on, roll on, Saskatchewan."
Chos: Roll on, roll on, Saskatchewan
From the wheat fields of my heart.
Go find your way
To the cool Hudson Bay.
Roll on, roll on, Saskatchewan.
Oh, river, go whisper my prayer.
Tell mother and dad I still care.
Leave this tear that I cried
On the shore that they died.
Roll on, roll on, Saskatchewan. (Chorus twice)
Roll on, roll on, Saskatchewan. (3x)
