SASKATCHEWAN WALTZ
enjoy featuring Cypress Studio Singers
LYRICS
Summer in Rosetown a farmer was he
But winter meant the Bonspiel round
And in Curling he gained reputation and fame
In every village and town,
While she and her family were from the Old Country
With a bakery in Saskatoon
And the short winter days meant for long winter nights
To dream under the old prairie moon.
And in Curling he gained reputation and fame
In every village and town,
While she and her family were from the Old Country
With a bakery in Saskatoon
And the short winter days meant for long winter nights
To dream under the old prairie moon.
Refrain:
A Saskatchewan waltz at a Bonspiel dance,
In good old Saskatoon town
Oh the boy was entranced by the beautiful girl
in her old-fashioned hand-me-down gown
her golden hair glowed in the dimly-lit room
her golden hair glowed in the dimly-lit room
And her cheeks were pale roses in bloom
And her eyes were a mem’ry of late summer skies
And her eyes were a mem’ry of late summer skies
As they danced around the room.
It was early one morning a bitter north wind
Brought the Rosetown team into town
And he saw her sweet face through a curtain of lace
And he knew his love he had found
He vowed not to leave ‘till he knew her name
And that night he got his chance
And the gods of love shone down from above
At the start of the prairie romance.

At the start of the prairie romance.
Summers in Rosetown a farmer is he
But Curling’s sJll part of his life
And when winter comes ‘round he drives from town to town
With his children and pretty young wife.
They have friends in Wadena and Paradise Hill
And family in Saskatoon
And the short winter nights make for long winter nights
To dream under the old prairie moon.
