When I was a young boy,
Mama said to me,
"Son your daddy's left home today,
I think he's packed up and gone to stay."
We packed up all of our bags,
And traveled up to Winnipeg

When we got to Winnipeg,
I checked in to school
Wore white bucks on my feet,
Got to learn about the Golden Rule
The punches came fast and hard,
Lying on my back in the schoolyard

Don't be denied
Don't be denied
Don't be denied
Don't be denied
Oh, friend of mine
Don't be denied
