| Original Song Title: | "God Bless the USA" |
| Original Performer: | Lee Greenwood |
| Parody Song Title: | "God bless Canada, eh!" |
| Parody Written by: | Kate Un-Heney |
I made this ON canada day, but (if it makes it) it won't show up until July 2nd...I sincerely hope this doesn't offend any Americans or Canadians alike (or Europeans, even...). I think this song is beautiful, and the parody is meant to be (mostly) serious. And I've feminized it - - Tah-tah
If tomorrow, all the things were gone I'd worked for all my life
And my chesterfield was filled with just my children and my guy,
I'd thank my lucky stars that our Walk 'o fame maintains,
Cuz our maple leaf means freedom, and they can't take that away-eh!?
and I'm Proud to be A Canadian,
Where at least the bacon's free
And I won't forget the pigs who died
and gave my food to me
And I'll proudly stand up next to you, not in igloos, as they say,
'Cuz I know that I love this land, God bless Canada, eh!
From the lakes of Ontario, and the mountains in BC
across the plains of Manitoba, sea to gleaming sea
From Toronto up to Banff, Iqualuit to Calgary
Let us not forget our maritimes that make us hosers see-ee
That I'm proud to be A Canadian,
Where at least the syrup's free
And I won't forget the trees who grew
and gave that food to me
And I'll proudly stand up next to you, in our french and english ways
'Cuz I know that I love this land, God bless Canada, eh!

Copyright 2003 Me :P *Note* there are so many things that make us Canadians so unique - I didn't mention our 'aboot' (which is a complete MISTAKE, since we do NOT say aboot!), crazy Newfie jokes, Our lovely Jean Poutine, the referendum, and our newest legalizations relating to marriage and such. What a crazy place to be - HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CANADA!

Good for you--patriotic, good song
This was good, I wasn't offended
Yeeeeaaaah!! Go Canadians! We rock! Woo! I'm from Southern Ontario, and have a Newfie friend whose jokes all have a Newfoundlander in them somehow! But anyway nice job on the parody! "At least the syrup's free"...I think I'll be singing the song like that from now on. Haha.
Aw, thanks guys! I totally appreciate that : ) and for funky Monkey--*tear tear* I'm, so glad my song will stay with you...hehe
Very good, Kate Some Canadian are my neigbors all winter, aye.
Happy anniversary, congratulations on Vancouver getting the 2010 Winter Olympics, and a salute to the freest nation on Earth! (At least until January 20, 2005, anyway.) Grits forever, and I don't mean Southern food! And being from New Jersey, let me say that we will take very good care of your Stanley Cup. Hadda get that in.

GO CANADA GO!
Beautifal. You bloody rock. Anyone who finds THAT offencive either needs to be slapped silly or get a sence of humour.
why would u disrespect canada with changhing the ;yrics like that wtf is wrong with u what do u have nothing better to do
I just heard the original song. Shame on you for making fun of it. It was written for our deceased Canadian Soldiers....all I can say is again, "Shame on you!!!"
I am so proud that Lee Greenwood would change the words to his song to have Canadian words. Obviously he thought enough of the men and women who died in Canada to change the words. Shame on you for changing the words. Shame on the Canadians who think your words were funny. After viewing the film clip of the cofins of the dead soldiers returning to Canada and hearing the song I am truly ashamed of you and you should definately take this " crap" off of the internet.
You honestly think this is funny? Don't mind poking a little fun at ourselves, but you stepped over the line on this one. You should be embarrassed for even posting this crap.
I know that we should be relaxed enough to tak a look at the humour in even the darkest moments of our lives: I for one do so regularly. However, I am also a soldier serving in Afghanistan. As others have said: you have crossed the line. But, you know what? Soldiers fight and die for YOU so that you can express even such disrespect. We will continue to do so.
my comment is for kates comment of making fun its not making fun of the song its parody the song theres a big difference
Great parody, and thanks for at least thinking of our Country. Too many citizens just use this Country as a gateway to somewhere else.Too bad. I love this Country and your parody was humourous and with point. Not malicious or disrespectful. Thanks.
