Runnin' Back To Saskatoon

~~~~

{Spoken Intro:}

"There's a province up in Canada that's right next door toours.

It's called Saskatchewan. And, uh, in that province there's a

small town, uh, where nothing much ever happens, called

Saskatoon. This is a tune about that town. This is called

'Runnin' Back To Saskatoon'."
