Cattle Call - Log Trucks & Snowmobile Trails

I heard this song on Greetings from Area Code 207 back in 2004. I rediscovered it by stumbling upon an email in Gmail and, after searching all over the internets for this one song, ended up just buying the album, Good Life, on CD. Crazy, I know. Apparently you can still do that.

Because they're not posted anywhere else, here are the lyrics:

You can take your Texas prairie
And your Louisiana swamp
You can talk about the southland all you want

Sing songs about Old Dixie
You can wear your cowboy hat
I don't claim to know a thing about all that

Log trucks and snowmobile trails
Wind and snow and sleet and sometimes hail
I don't expect you rebels to understand
But I'll live and die in this winter wonderland

Up north the air is different
And the winter's way too long
And we don't pretend that the Civil War is still on

And the farms are so much smaller
And the days are not as long
None of that sounds romantic in a song

Log trucks and snowmobile trails
Wind and snow and sleet and sometimes hail
I don't expect you rebels to understand
But I'll live and die in this winter wonderland

You can take your Texas prairie
And your Louisiana swamp
You can talk about the southland all you want

I'll take Aroostook County
And I'll take the Fryeburg Fair
You can draw the Mason-Dixon Line right there

Log trucks and snowmobile trails
Last stop on the Appalachian Trail
I don't expect you rebels to understand
But I'll live and die in this winter wonderland

I don't expect you rebels to understand
But this Yankee's stuck up here in Vacationland
