Lyrics:

Picking up the puck bag working on the toe drag
Threading that needle clean
Marner in the high slot Mathews with the hot shot
Kids are barely nineteen

Willie with the slick moves Connor in a nice groove
Showing off skills like we knew that they would
Freddie in between the pipes each and every single night
Damn these guys look good

We were bred on Sittler, Wendel and the Killer
Born in the heart of the 6ix
We said thank you Sundin and everybody in between
But now we've got a new bag of tricks

At the Winter Classic Auston's Magic
Made us thankful for our picks
Got a brand new team this has been a big dream
For all of us Canadian Kids

Growing up in blue and white houses
Watching Ron and Don from our couches
Every single Saturday night
Now at long last these Leafs are alright

Red hot power play no look tape to tape
JVR'll bulge that twine
Not allowed facial hair singing "Livin' on a Prayer"
Having a pretty good time

Shanny's got a program, sheriff knows what we need
Louie and the Babcock pulling up their Babsocks
Building that winning team

Check out Hyman grinding Rielly winding
Watch the clapper go bardown
Kadri with a sly grin getting under your skin
Man you gotta love this town

Now Freddie's stopping, Martin's dropping
Giving other tough guys the skids
Watching these young guns is pretty damn fun
For all of us Canadian kids

Growing up in blue and white houses
Watching Ron and Don from our couches
Every single Saturday night
Now at long last these Leafs are alright

For a hundred years we shed blue and white tears
At the Gardens and the ACC
No more tearful nights the future looks bright
If the Cubs can do it why can't we?

Now every night's so damn exciting
Makes us want to throw our lids
We've got talent and depth and we're savage AF
Like all of us Canadian kids

Growing up in blue and white houses
Watching Ron and Don from our couches
Every single Saturday night
Now at long last these Leafs are alright
