MAN IN A SILVER SUIT Couldn’t come at a worst time Couldn’t come at a worst time Verse 1 With a shark on your chest Love in your heart Demons in your head You tore the stage apart Chorus The man in the silver suit Just a man in a silver suit Who came to say goodbye …to say goodbye The man in the silver suit Just a man in a silver suit We shared a tear in our eye …tears in our eyes Verse 2 Kingston is sinkin’ man Country’s eyes on you Doing the best you can What you love to do Verse 3 Tragically rock star Tragic hero Doesn’t matter what you are Didn’t want you to go Chorus final Couldn’t come at a worst time (x4) ( …COURAGE!!.....

Drums Are Echoing Copyright 2013 Dennis Kalichuk – Jumbo Train Verse 1 2000 guns – 96 gallons of rum Toronto that did buy The song my paddle sings An eagle cries in the sky 1492 - waves of change Tears fall from your eyes Chorus The drums are echoing Feathers flying high Dust up from the ground Helps to dry a weeping eye Rhythm like your heart beat As one – moon, earth and sky Verse 2 Toxic residential schools Primed to make you white Stripped of your Mother tongue Lips are sealed to hide your plight Assimilate and regulate Wrongs so clear in hindsight Chorus Bridge Always going to be a first and last Move ahead and hang on to the best that’s past Sacred land we need to share Mother earth the common bond Differences will always be there Chorus Moon, earth and sky Moon, earth and sky Moon, earth and sky

Verse 1 I don’t wear spurs or cowboy hats ‘cause I’m not a cowboy I don’t ride horses, mules or steers ‘cause I drive a car And I don’t sing with a southern drawl ‘cause I’m Canadian eh! Eh eh eh eh eh…. Chorus I met God one fine day He was selling tickets by the stadium He said – “Hey I think I might know you man… Aren’t you a musician”?! …a musician Verse 2 I don’t like beer that tastes like water It’s gotta have a kick I don’t need twitter twits or snappity chat I need to smell your perfume Don’t wanna go just for the instagrams I wanna go to be with you! You, you you you you… Chorus Verse 3 I don’t like to plan too far ahead I don’t buy green bananas But I still like yoga pants and sexy talk And oh hell yeah I even like your smile Don’t need to be a big fish in this tiny little pond Just a slippery shiny minnow in a big blue sea, sea! Don’t you see? Final Chorus X2 …a musician …a musician……… …a musician …a musician “ …a musician “ …a musician.

LIFESAVER Verse 1 I don’t have good moves so I play this guitar I don’t know how to rap so I’ll just sing this song… this song And I’m not so young – anymore So I think about God and I wonder how long…. Chorus But I’ve got a tiger in my tank You threw a lifesaver just before my heart sank Snap crackle pop and taste the rainbow We’re all grown up now so where do you want… …to go Verse 2 Shake our heads and wonder why There’s no going now back it’s already broke… it’s broke Open our eyes and try not to cry A forest will soon emerge from all this smoke… chorus Verse 3 Every little boy wants to be a cowboy And we were meant to be together since since we were in the womb… the womb Feeling kind of lost as I stand my ground But then I feel your love from across the room…. Final Chorus Where do you want to go? Where do you want to go? Where would you like to go……….?

This Town 05:09

THIS TOWN – copyright Dennis Kalichuk Verse 1 Boys smoking cigarettes up in the pool hall Coming home late didn’t have to call Doing a lot – but couldn’t have it all Small town life... we didn’t mind at all Chorus Oh I remember this town... Oh I love this town... Verse 2 Two rivers flow that we used to fish Beyond the woods where we used to kiss So many faces that I really miss In case you’re not sure – yeah, you’re on that list Verse 3 Fell in love for the very first time Didn’t let it get better like a bottle of wine Was just a kid – too young to make you mine Good to hear that you’re doing fine Verse 4 Mom and dad together up on top of the hill Feel just like they’re alive here still With Mary Poppins, Hardy Boys, Jack and Jill Going to breathe this in until I get my fill Verse 5 Taking a stroll through the old playground No one there – not a sound Kicking at the stones and the memories on the ground Little boy innocence remains in the lost and found Instrumental bridge Final chorus That’s how I remember this town That’s why I love this town Oh I remember this town Oh I love... oh I love... oh how I love....... this town
