The Land God Gave to Caine
A G A
Long before the white man came to haul the shining cod,
D G A
When the wild and stately Caribou traversed the snow clad south.
D G A
The native man he walked these hills and he fished the silvery lake.
G A
Content with what the land would yield not one bit more would take.
A G A
But soon the word it was put out from every country,
A G A
To find a northern passage from the sea to the shining sea.
D G A
The first to come were the trappers then the men who God do preach
G A
That they would return in hundred fold an equal share to each.
A G A
For years the men of Newfoundland; those fishermen so bold,
D G A
Set out each year at spring-time for to fish on the Labrador,
D G A
But soon the fish they were all gone with the fur it was the same,
G A
And the natives suffered silently in the land God gave to Caine.
A G A
Well years went by and as time past the companies grew thin,
D G A
For Ore and wood and the Hydropower the struggle did begin.
D G A
The working men on both sides tried to live their lives the same,
G A
And the natives suffered silently in the land God gave to Caine.
A G A
And now its for the future both sides do share the fear,
D G A
The old ways they are passing like the Caribou and hare,
D G A
And now they all are wondering if it was all in vain,
G A
And the natives suffered silently in the land God gave to Caine.
