That old Guess Who song leaves hope that they are not forgotten, that there are those who raise an eyebrow of concern. There are those who wish they could rush down to the border to see them in, welcome them.
"Maybe I'll be there to shake your hand (Shake your hand)"Maybe I'll be there to share the land (Share the land)"That they'll be givin' awayWhen we all live together, we're talkin' 'bout together, now"
