I put eggs on my toast,
drink milk straight from the carton,
that’s something I do,
‘cause I’m Canadian Eh!

It feels like winter all year round,
there’s always snow on the ground.
I’m used to these things everyday.
Wanna know why? I’m Canadian Eh!

When people come to Canada,
they always expect it’s cold.
Even in the middle of summer,
they’re expecting snow to fall.

When I say ‘Eh’ it means many things,
like asking the weather or stating things.
When someone says ‘Eh’ I know right away,
I get what they’re saying ‘cause I’m Canadian Eh!
