54 40' OR FIGHT
Artist: Third Person
Album: Eclection
Good ol� James K. Polk
Said that we oughta go
Up and take it over
His destiny manifest
His dream was taking the rest
Extending our borders
Just like a 51st state
And he just couldn�t wait
To get his hands on
Because they�re just like us
But we just couldn�t trust
Their catalytic converter
CHORUS
54 40 or Fight
Where do you draw the line
54 40 or Fight
Canada�s ours tonight
Above the line 49
Lies the land before time
And Prince Edward Island
Where the Neufies are from
They cross the border for fun
With their dog sleds a slidin�
Igloos and Eskimos
The ones that nobody knows
They won�t be missed at the UN
22 hour long days
22 hour long nights
Population of 10
CHORUS
Smokin� SOLO
Now the years have gone by
And it�s still not clear why
We don�t own Manitoba
With many hectares of land
So c�mon Uncle Sam
It�s our turn to control her
Canadian usurpation
One American nation
No more hoser back bacon
Now Polk was right along
So we�ve written this song
Canada�s our for the takin�
