Sudbury Lyrics - Craig Cardiff

one night in sudbury ontario 

a drunk approached the stage 

full of rage, drunk up on his rage 

he said 'me and my girl we want to dance slow' 

so why don't you sing some songs we know 

like maybe... maybe stompin' tom 

we played the songs as best we could 

three chords, strings, dirty wood 

and pushed them past the smoke the whole night long 

hey, hey what's the deal? 

this was supposed to be the real thing 

but we're angry now and yelling now 

we're not hearing anything 

that the other person is saying at all 

one night in sudbury ontario 

one night in riviere du loup 

i looked out through the smoke and swore i saw you 

too many nights 

too many drinks 

too many times 

where i didn't think of you 

i didn't think of you 

hey, hey what's the deal? 

this was supposed to be the real thing 

but we're angry now and yelling now 

we're not hearing anything 

that the other person is saying at all
