    Hôtel Chibougamau


    On a subarctic highway
    Cool wind in my hair
    Warm smell of wet dogs
    Rising up through the air
    Up ahead in the distance
    I saw a shimmering light
    My head grew heavy, and my sight grew dim
    I had to stop for the night

    There she stood in the doorway
    She looked pretty dull
    And I was thinking to myself
    For the first time I really miss Hull

    Then she lit up a Belvedère
    And she showed me the way
    There were voices down the corridor
    I thought I heard them say

    Welcome to the Hotel Chibougamau
    Such a dumpy place
    Eeech, and an ugly face
    Nothin to do at the Hotel Chibougamau
    Any time of year
    You won't find it here
