  1. If Stompin' Tom Was Our National Bird
Free
Share

There is a national campaign by a group of bird lovers, ornithologists and patriotic Canadians who want The Whiskey Jack (aka, Canada Jay) declared Canada's national bird. We wrote this and have offered it to everyone for free to support this important cause. The Whiskey Jack and Stompin' Tom have much in common. Listen to this song and you'll learn why.

Lyrics

If Stompin' Tom was our national bird, I wonder what he'd be.
I doubt he'd be a Robin or a pretty Chickadee.
His plumage would be mostly grey with a little touch of black,
If Stompin' Tom was our national bird, he'd be a Whiskey Jack


Whiskey Jack, the Canada Jay, sassy, smart and bold
Whiskey Jack, the trickster, mischievous we’re told
Whiskey Jack, he's not a Snowbird, flying south ‘n back
If Stompin' Tom was our national bird he'd be a Whiskey Jack.


If Stompin' Tom was our national bird, he'd "stand on guard for thee"
And when he chirps the alphabet, its x, y zed, not zee
He'd swoop down to a logger's camp and grab a little snack,
If Stompin' Tom was our national bird, he'd be a Whiskey Jack.

Stompin' Tom and Whiskey Jack, they’re known from coast to coast,
They’ve been to every camp and town from south to northernmost,
One’s called a National Treasure, one’s called Wasakajac
If Stompin' Tom was our national bird, he'd be a Whiskey Jack

Whiskey Jack's Legends of Canadian Country Music

Sunday, June 12 @ 3:00PM (EDT, UTC-04)Sun, Jun 12 @ 3:00PM (EDT, UTC-04)

Town Hall Heritage Theatre , 274 Josephine St,, Wingham, Ontario N0G 2W0

John Miller, artistic director of Huron Waves Music Festival has invited Duncan and Whiskey Jack to debut their new touring show, Legends of Canadian Country Music. The date is June 12, 2022 and the location is home of another legend, the CKNX Barn Dance, Wingham Ontario. Joining Whiskey Jack for this extravaganza will be Brian Good from The Good Brothers and Canadian Hall of Fame recipient, Marie Bottrell. The musical history on the stage for this show turns it into an afternoon of "Legends honouring Legends". Given Whiskey Jack's years with the CBC on The Tommy Hunter Show and as Stompin' Tom's touring band, these hardened road warriors are well suited to represent the generation that was inspired by ....Gordon Lightfoot, Ian Tyson, Gordie Tapp, Wilf Carter, Don Messer, The Good Brothers, Prairie Oyster and more. All multiple award winners in their field, seasoned veterans Brian Good, his wife Susie and Marie Bottrell bring their own stories and songs to the stage.
