Lyrics
Hark and listen to the whistle of the train Pullin' from the station to the land of the golden grain When we return again, our friends will drink our health Cause there's no place here where there is such cheer As the land of the golden pelt Molly Dear, I greatly fear that soon I will be gone I am going away on a harvest train to the far Saskatchewan To reap the grain on a western plain, where the buffalo used to roam And I'll leave you alone in your island home My dear Colleen Bawn Molly dear, when night is near and I am far away With loving heart, you'll do your part, and for me you will pray When the kids are fed, they go to bed and you'll stand out on the lawn You will heave a sigh for your absent boy In the far Saskatchewan, yeah Molly dear, dry up your tears, I'll soon be home again My pockets lined with the gold I'll find In the fields of the golden grain Nevermore I'll go a-soar to the far Saskatchewan Or I'll leave you here my Molly dear In our little Island home Hark and listen to the whistle of the train We are pullin' from the station and we're homeward bound again When we return again our friends will drink our health Cause there's no place here where there is such cheer As the land of the golden pelt Land of the Golden Pelt, yeah
