Subject: Rita Macneil lyrics
From: GUEST,Hi Lo

I am looking for lyrics to Rita MacNeil songs, especially Working Man and She's Called Nova Scotia. I checked the DT and they don't seem to be there. Does anyone know a site where I might find them ?
Thanks

You'll need to scroll down almost to the end of the thread, but it's there.

This will take you to Rita Macneil



SHE'S CALLED NOVA SCOTIA
Words and Music by Rita MacNeil

She grows on you slowly
The first time you meet
There's just so much beauty
The heart can believe
And you want to stay longer
And she's ever so pleased
You're one of the many who don't
Want to leave

Chorus
So walk through her green field
Go down to the sea
The fortune in your eyes
Is more like a dream
She's called Nova Scotia
And she so makes you feel
You've discovered a treasure
No other has seen

It's hard to remember
The places you've been
For once in her presence
She's all that you see
And she cradles you softly
Like a warm gentle breeze
And wins your heart over
With a feeling of peace

Chorus

She welcomes the strangers
From far away shores
While deep down inside her
Some walk through her soul
And at night in her slumber
The winds softly call
And awakens her spirit
That lives in us all

Chorus

If you were in Shelburne on June 18 and 19th, I think you would see that your song would lift your soul to a point where a few blessed Nova Scotians went when the light cast its shadow twice and Earth Beat to its drum in Ionis recreation of God's visitation in his sun cloud. Nothing beats in my back yard in summer solstice like the moon's argument with Sol and Terra.

p.s I'd tell you the rest, but then again...... :)
