about

I wrote this song in High School more than 40 years ago. It was released as a single by Bloodstone on Bent Records in Toronto. This remake is quite different in vibe from the original.

lyrics

I was born in an average family
grew up in a happy home.
Got no stories no there ain't no crimes I've done
I'm just singin' you this song.

There ain't nowhere that I like more than Toronto
Lord I know she'll never die.
Even if I never come back to Toronto
I will never say goodbye.

Aaah

Maybe south down cross the border
Visit US of A.
Spend my life well I'm doin' just what I need to
But I'll never be free.

There ain't nowhere that I like more than Toronto
Lord I know she'll never die.
Even if I never come back to Toronto
I will never say goodbye.

Aaah

Goin' where I need to
Doin' what I have to.
