You might see me down in Alabam?
Or Baton Rouge down in Louisian?
I might make it up to Detroit city
Where people work hard and live is gritty
Don?t really matter where I am
Cause what I do is what I can
This old world has been good to me
I try to give back and I wanna be free
I was born in Ontario
I was born in Ontario
Ontario, Ontario, Ontario
I still like to sing a happy song
But once in a while, when things go wrong
I pick up a pen, Scribble on a page
Try to make sense of my inner rage
One cold winter
We went down south
With daddy?s typewriter for a couple of months
But I was born in Ontario
I was born in Ontario
Ontario, Ontario Ontario
I was born in Ontario
Where the black fly bites and the green grass grows
That?s where I learned mostly what I know
?cause you don?t learn much, when you start to get old
I left home at a tender young age
Cause Mom and Daddy never liked to stay
At anyone place for very long
So we just kept movin?, movin? on
I was born in Ontario
I was born in Ontario
Ontario, Ontario, Ontario
Born in ontario lyrics
