Blue Nose

My father was a Blue Nose, and his dad through and through
My mother, she's a Blue Nose, and her mother's mother too
We live in Nova Scotia where the sea and sky are blue
And when they call us Blue Nose, we're goldang proud they do

From Sydney to the Yarmouth town and all points in between
It's just a magic picture book, the like you never seen
And the pioneer who settled here and gave this land a name
If he was called Blue Nose, I wanna be called the same

For we turned the wheels of industry before the days of oil
When the Nova Scotia miners gave the world their precious coal
And we built the fastest sailing ship that ever sailed the sea
And if that was called Blue Nose, that's good enough for me

Now you might work in Halifax or make Cape Breton steel
But there's a bond between us all we understand and feel
And the world has seen our brothers who went off to fight the war
And if they were called Blue Nose, could we be something more?

Down where the seafoods are the finest, always grade A number one
And the orchards of Anapolis, they're the second best to none
We love you, Nova Scotia, may you stand forever proud
And when they call you Blue Nose, just smile and take a bow

We live in Nova Scotia where the sea and sky are blue
Andwhen they call us Blue Nose, we're goldang proud they do
