OH MOOSE JAW
Vocal: The Jaw
Lyrics: Roy
Release Date: 2026
Audience: For All Ages
Album Description:
I’ve always been drawn to the history of the places I settle in, and Moose Jaw’s story has deeply moved me. This album is my humble attempt to reflect that—sharing echoes of the ‘Notorious City,’ overlooked pieces of history, and quiet moments under its prairie sky.
These lyrics can’t capture the full depth of this city’s past, just like a conversation between friends.
The Tunnels
Other places might leave you full of wonder
But here, it’s something else
The sun shines on Main Street
A breeze rustles the treetops and the cars roll by
Miss Fanny’s Club is Not busy today
‘Cause everyone heads to the tunnels
They say a storm is coming today
I follow the crowd down to the tunnels
We disappear from the world for a while
Nobody will know
The stone walled tunnels are like a maze
Behind hidden stone doors the crowd is loud
Watch your step now, don’t look around
Listen—the sound of the Chicago Typewriter and a breaking heart
Storm tonight
Down in those tunnels
Disappear from the world for a while
Nobody will know
And those oak barrels, fully loaded
Caught the train in the Dead of night
Heading to Chicago then to the ends of the earth
Traded for Cash, bread and medicine for the poor
Countless laborers once passed through the tunnels
Millions in Pony kegs, Millions in Cash
All flowing through the Dark below
But now, all lost to time
Look at that skinny newsboy
Wearing a ragged old flat cap
Something’s in the air
He’s rushing and shouting
Storm tonight
Deep in the tunnels
Disappear from the world for a while
Nobody will know
Storm tonight
Inside the tunnel of my heart
Disappear from the world for a while
Nobody will know
Nobody will know
When the storm Stops and I Step outside
Staring blankly at the street Signs
Suddenly, I forget the time and place
It feels like I’m drawn into a time warp
My ears are still ringing with the echo
Storm tonight!
Storms always come out of nowhere
When they gather right over your head
Just slip into that tunnel Deep inside your heart
Let the time pass, let your heart rest
They say the tunnels today are just scratching the surface
And if you’re willing to believe
They reach inside every heart
And every corner in the world
