Whiskey on the Shield

Clearwater haze
Clearwater haze
Last trapper of Waterways

Riding the train and then the paddle wheel
Goin' up north to where the steel meets the keel

So much steam
So much steam
Ghosts on the river, spirits in a dream

Through Fort Chip up to Reindeer Station
Delta hides the devil in a beaver dam formation

Load them down
Load them down
Sternwheeler heavy, walls o' whiskey all around

Case after case, oh what a yield
Bring it to the man standing on Canadian Shield

Sweat come hard
Sweat come hard
Don't make a difference if you're worn or if you're scarred

Salt and sand, they give a man his grit
Working on the river 'cause he love it every bit

Here's mud in your eye
Mud in your eye
So damn precious, her smooth it satisfy

We all must do our part for the great whiskey migration
Delta hides the devil, got to fight off all damnation

Delta hides the devil

Cases of whiskey, oh what a yield
Salvation to the man standing on the shield
Salvation to the man
Whiskey on the shield

It's cases of whiskey, oh what a yield
Salvation to the man standing on the shield
Salvation to the man
Whiskey on the shield

Whiskey on the shield

Whiskey on the shield
