A great song written by one of Newfoundland's finest songwriters, Bruce Moss from out in central Newfoundland.
As old as it is, it makes sense again today.
But when we done it ten years ago, it was a lot of drums and bass going crazy,
and it was an opportunity this time.
We do it a little bit different, with different harmonies now,
and we figured what a refreshing way to put a take on an old song again.
The Islander 2010 is the Islander 2010 because it's not [F#m] the Islander 2000.
Are there any [G] Newfoundlanders here tonight?
[C#m] [F#m]
I'm a Newfoundlander, born and bred, and I'll be one till I die.
I'm proud to be an Islander, here's the reason why.
I'm free as the wind and the waves washed [N] as sand.
There's no place I would rather be than here in Newfoundland.
I spent some time in New York State and I nearly lost my mind.
This city life's too fast for me, nobody has the time.
Cement and steel and flashing lights is all that I could see.
It may be good for New York State, but it's no damn good for me.
[A] I'm a Newfoundlander, born and bred, and I'll be one [N] till I die.
I'm proud to be an Islander, here's the reason why.
I'm free as the wind and the waves washed as sand.
There's no place I would rather be than here in Newfoundland.
In Montreal the Frenchmen say that they own Labrador.
Including Indian Harbor where me father fished before.
But if they want to fight for her, I'll surely take a stand.
And they'll regret the day they tried to take our Newfoundland.
I'm a [A] Newfoundlander, born and bred, and I'll [N] be one till I die.
I'm proud to be an Islander, here's the reason why.
I'm free as the wind and the waves washed as sand.
There's no place I would rather be than here in Newfoundland.
Now that the isle is on our shore, we better take the time.
To develop it more carefully, our roads are gonna find.
What could have been the answer to our poor economy?
Has changed our way of living and destroyed our fishery.
