Yellowknife Theme (Original Composition)

So I was thinking of writing a concept album about the town of Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada. The reason being is because gold prospectors visited there, and I wanted to write a story around that. It's a simple story, but I'm trying to sharpen my music and lyric writing skills. Hope this project works out.

This is the first track for this album that I have written. Hope you enjoy, guys and gals. :)

LYRICS:
We’re on our way to Yellowknife
It’s a wondrous place full of sound and life!
We’re on our way to Yellowknife
The gold is in sight and its ours for the taking

Soon the world will love us
‘Cause we found a reason – a reason to be!

We’re on our way to Yellowknife
Unsullied by our human hands
We’re on our way to Yellowknife
Buckets in hand, we want to be rich

I guess it’s true what they say
Defer your scruples if you want some pay.

BRIDGE:
What if there’s nothing?
If it’s all for naught?
Suppose we lose our minds while we’re there?

And what if our country
Suspects we’re frauds?
At least we’ll be free under nature’s laws!

We’re on our way to Yellowknife
It’s a wondrous place full of sound and life!
We’re on our way to Yellowknife
The gold is in sight and its ours for the taking
