Lyrics:
Hello friends, This is Stompin' Tom Connors And I'd like to dedicate this song to that old Alberta cowboy himself Wilf Carter (Yodeling) In the year 1904, Upon a cold December morn In Port Hillford, Nova Scotia Wilf Carter he was born Went to work for the local farmers, at a very tender age Til' the Bush Camps of New Brunswick hired Wilf for a better pay And Wilf began to yodeleyaee in the back woods of Amdee (Yodeling) From the Maritimes to Boston now, the wheat fields of the West The Plains of ol' Alberta they just seemed to suit him best Punching cows and breaking horse was the life he loved to lead And you'd always see Wilf Carter at the Calgary Stampede And Wilf would always yodeleyaee on the streets of Calgary (Yodeling) When he sang, he'd play the guitar, tellin' stories that were true For the songs that he wrote, were always about people that he knew And he took his compositions down to Montreal by train Where he made his first recording, and was on his way to fame And Wilf began to yodeleyaee on the radio cbc (Yodeling) Just the plain and simple cowboy, with that old familar grin To the usa, Wilf Carter was now Montana Slim From the hungary hobo jungles, to the top recording star And the people came by thousands, when he strummed that old guitar And Wilf would always yodeleyaee in a voice so young and free (Yodeling) Now the message of my story won't be hard to understand And I think I speak for every hardcore country music fan Though the modern record players have replaced the gramaphone I still love to here Wilf Carter singing play the cowboy songs And Wilf can still yodeleyaee any time he wants for me (Yodeling)
