K D Lang Lyrics - Singles - Stompin Tom

Where the wild roses grow in Alberta- 

On the banks of the Gooseberry lake 

There's a rose I suppose that you hearda- 

She's as mild as a wild Irish wake 

Like a thorn she was born to be contrary 

Like a boy's was her joy raising cain. 

The wildest rose that ever drove on the prairie 

behind the wheel of a big truckload of grain. 

Chorus 

Little k little d little l-a-n-g-Her name was just plain kd lang 

But her main claim to fame was how she sang with a twang 

And jumped around like a 'rangytang-lady k.d. lang 

k.d. lang, k.d. lang, she jumped around like a 'rangytang- 

lady k.d.lang. 

>From her home down in consort Alberta 

near the tracks of that old railroad line 

With her hair she could scare old Medusa, 

While she sang like a young Patsy Cline. 

It wasn't long till her songs got her landed 

On the stage with those outrageous clothes- 

There were skirts over shirts, boots, and trousers, 

Hangin down from this wild Alberta Rose. 

Chorus: 

Now she toured north and south of the border- 

And recorded with many famous names... 

Though her style it was wild and outrageous, 

Her star just kept rising to fame- 

With her voice that was new and exciting, 

She was called to those Juno awards 

She made a leap on the stage and she got one 

And took it home to Alberta, Boy George! 

Chorus:
