Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Canadian Pacific
The song is definately a Ray Griff (British Columbia) composition.I remember when Geo. Hamilton IV recorded it in the mid 60,s there was some controversy regarding the line "I rode your ocean liner to Newfoundland" as the ferry service to Newfoundland is run by Canadian National Railroad and not Canadian Pacific Railroad. Still a great song, just the same.
