[00:00:00] Crossroads - Gordon Lightfoot

[00:00:00] Written by：Gordon Lightfoot

[00:00:08] When first I did appear upon this native soil

[00:00:13] All up and down this country at labor I did toil

[00:00:18] I slumbered in the moonlight and I rose with the sun

[00:00:23] I rambled through the canyons where the cold rivers run

[00:00:30] When first I did come down where the land meets the sea

[00:00:35] The people said who are you and what would your name be

[00:00:40] I said I have no home and I am no man's son

[00:00:45] 'Twas inland I was born and from inland that I come

[00:00:50] In the good land I was young and I was strong

[00:00:54] No one dared to call me son

[00:00:56] Happy just to see my day's work done

[00:01:01] See my day's work done

[00:01:12] So I swung an axe as a timberjack

[00:01:14] And I worked the Quebec mines

[00:01:17] And on the golden prairie I rode the big combines

[00:01:22] I sailed the maritime waters of many a seaport town

[00:01:27] Built the highways and the byways to the western salmon grounds

[00:01:36] I've gazed upon the good times I've seen the bad times too

[00:01:41] Felt many a cold and bitter wind and many a mornin' dew

[00:01:46] I've watched the country growin' like a fair and mighty thing

[00:01:51] And on the still of a summer night I've heard the mountains ring

[00:01:56] In the good land I was young and I was strong

[00:02:00] No one dared to call me son

[00:02:02] Happy just to see my day's work done

[00:02:07] See my day's work done

[00:02:21] But now the seeds are planted and the gates are open wide

[00:02:26] The old ways are forgotten there's no place left to hide

[00:02:30] And the legacy I'm leavin' you is not very hard to find

[00:02:36] You'll see it all around you at this crossroads of time

[00:02:40] In the sweet soil it's a growin' at the crossroads of time
