Colter Wall - "Saskatchewan 1881"

Why am I just discovering this guy?!

Good Mississippi John Hurt cover

Alberta in 2024

"produce my 44"
Such an old country turn of phrase

LYRICS:

(This one is called Saskatchewan, in 1881.)
[That was a good year.]
(It was a great year.)
[One of the best years of Saskatchewan.]

(Hook)
Mister Toronto man
Go away from my door
You got my weed and canola seed
You're asking me for more
Better fly fore' I produce my 44'.

(Verse 1)
I'm just a prairie boy
Never meant none no harm
Spend my days making wages out on the Martin's farm
No Eastern boy is gonna twist my arm.

(Verse 2)
It's so damn cold out here
Wind will cut you half in two
I ain't kiddin' now, my old plow
Is frozen to my mule
I been living off of ice cold rainbow stew.

(Verse 3)
Don't be pickin' fights
With no Mennonites
Don't be raisin' Cain
While they're planting grain
And working through the night
They're gonna let you know if you ain't acting right.

(Hook)
Mister Toronto man
Go away from my door
Got my weed and Canola seed
You're asking me for more
Better fly fore' I produce my 44'
Better fly fore' I produce my 44'.

My favorite song

It's not very often. The world is blessed with someone like Colter

Ahhh looking for new music and found just what I was looking for. This song is amazing

Don’t be picking fights with no Mennonites

I feel we just met a singer who Johnny Cash would love to see him make it bigger that him!

What a great song! I must have listened to it a 1001 times and it keeps getting better every time.

This is a good song

Like it was a church hymn

Guess I've never said that right ...oh well

I love when colter wall gives me time to smoke my cigarette in between singing really appreciate it colter

This song is from the prespective of when we still had a chance to not be in the poor house. This country has gone to shit. How is anyone supposed to make a living

LEGEND. GOD BLESS YOU YOUNG MAN.

Great song! Canola seed was first bred in the 1970's, so I can only assume you're telling Mr. Toronto man to piss off today. Great song.

dude's about to explode now that Jordon Peterson just plugged him in his new interview with Oliver Anthony.

Go riders

Yeah, I mean he even turned his back on God, that's a lot of tragedy. I truly believe God has the power to heal all and forgive all. As a Christian, I still love the truth in his story; he's hurting and he's honest about hurting; hey man, I've been there too.

Finally , we have an actual country singer again. I can tell you one thing for sure you won't be working for anybody on no farms anymore 😤👍🇺🇲

Damn i swear im late to the party but every song i hear from this guy is better than the last

Ice cold rainbow stew, 'if it aint got a twig and a dove on it, then it ain't a rainbow'.

Country as corn bread

What a GREAT voice!

yung gravy of country

Love this song

Only good thing to come out of Canada

I just found a new sanger that's great.

Coulter. If you don't know by now - your Dad, Brad, is a douche.

How is it knowing your dad is a criminal?
/maybe wright a song about it.

He sucks!!!!

one of the best country songs ever written, ever.

As a Canadian what was bron and raised in Saskatchewan i kivw thia song

Just found this guy today!! Omg!! Huge fan already!!

You can definitely hear that man in black sound.

listening from eastern canada!

That martin is a reissue or its a 1920s original it sounds old either way thing of beauty

If the Lord ever providentially allows Colter Wall, Charlie Crockett, and Hayde Bluegrass to gather for a concert someday, it will be these best musical happening humanity has experienced in modern history.

That capo is clearly not from 1881. The rest seems about right.

This sound tune sounds almost exactly like Doc Watsons "blue railroad train"

Music hasn't made me feel this way in a long time

Colter=Boss. Great tune. Love it.

Glad Tik Tok an the non country posers haven’t got ahold of this one yet.

When Colter was born he shook the doctors hand and drove his momma home

A pirate looks at 40…

Chuck Norris listens to Colter wall

The way Tyler says "darlin'..."

i dont want this song to end its so damn good
