I've got news for you
This could pull you under
We were drifting upstream
On some useless lumber
Headed past the tree line
To the northern colours
It got a bit confusing at the American border
This isn't James Bay now; this is Boston Harbor
Get your life savers out
Sons and Daughters
You ain't getting much for free

They got love for you
Naked in Hollywood
They see gold in your trees and gold in your people
They'll be panning for it in your water
I couldn't get back home
Not with the president's blessing
Would you vote for me
Sons and Daughters
You ain't getting much for free

Sons and daughters
Happiness isn't free
Sons and daughters
Wait for me
Sons and daughters
Happiness isn't free
At the American border
