The people of BTO's home, Manitoba Canada, have always been hard working 'blue collar' types.
Whether gathering wild rice, loading a ship bound for Russia, harvesting, mining, assembling busses, building airplanes, herding cattle or working on the railroad all the live long day, these people put in full days.
But when the day is done, 'Tobans also know how to unwind...

    The best song Fred Turner ever wrote, maybe BTO's best number. Great singing, superb guitar solos by Randy, especially the ending.

    to the people like my late grandparents who came to this country with empty pockets but with hearts full of ambition & determination--they built up this country by the sweat of their brows & backs, & by the blood of their hands & feet--& the background guitar work of Randy Bachman is smooth & cool here as well!
