[Lyric] Alberta Rose (Brandi Vezina)

[Verse 1]
She caught the 8:15 Greyhound
Headin' east on Yellowhead
Alberta didn't go quite as she planned
She's goin' at this all alone
Little bump's startin' to show
Needs to take some time to understand

[Pre-Chorus]
Three more stops 'til Brandon, baby's cryin' in the back
Too soon for morning sickness, how's she gonna tell her dad?

[Chorus]
When she gets home
Everyone will know
This is what she chose
Her Alberta rose

[Verse 2]
She came home to her mama's arms
And the hurt in Daddy's eyes
Little brother made her laugh through the storms
[Pre-Chorus]
Still, three months later, Daddy hadn't said a word
She's goin' into labor, he asked, "Are you okay, my girl?"

[Chorus]
When she gets home
Everyone will know
This is what she chose
It's her Alberta rose
When she gets home
Someday down the road
When her little girl is grown
That's her Alberta rose

[Bridge]
It was hard, but it was worth it
Roots grow deep under the surface
Accidents happen, there's a purpose, uh-oh
It brought her whole family together
That love will last forever
She didn't have to go at this alone

[Chorus]
When she gets home
Everyone will know
This is what she chose
It's her Alberta rose
When she gets home
Someday down the road
Now her little girl is grown
It's her Alberta rose
