It's been a few years since I went away
I was down and out and I couldn't escape
Then I met a soldier and everything changed
When I joined the Army
I'd be a soldier and I'd fly away I'd train with the boys in the RCHA
I was proud to wear the uniform for Oh Canada our country
I fired M105's AND an M109's If I got my bearings right I would be fine
I'll always love the artillery and when I was a gunner
I shot a machine gun and I threw grenades
They called me killer and I wore a beret
Gunners bombers now we'd all say Ubique when you're a gunner
I was a gunner and I flew away I trained with the boys in the RCHA
I was proud to wear the uniform for Oh Canada our country
Left Right come on boy you bear walking
