about
Before Les and I moved to Grafton, we lived downtown Toronto and for the last year there we felt - uncomfortable. We were liking the city less and less and all of our interests were rural kind of things like gardening, having chickens, having space. I have vivid memories of us just driving...looking for our new home. We never headed West - it was always East to Kingston as all the signs say.
lyrics
we were all packed up
all of our best stuff
we had enough
there's no room
in a city like this
for people like us
so we got in our car
modest but it meets our needs
headed to the 401
and east to Kingston
we searched around
anywhere but town
for somewhere to settle down
privacy and land
I could start up a band
wouldn't life be just grand
we woke up
traffic finally broke up
on the 401
and east to Kingston
follow the car in front
for us that's good enough
tore out the review mirror
only one way left
east to Kingston
