Biografia:
Born in Westmount, Quebec, to South African parents, he graduated from Loyola High School and McGill University. Roberts formed the band that was eventually known as William in 1993. The band's name was changed to Northstar in 1996. Although the band gained some notice in independent rock circles, they could not break through to a national audience, and broke up in 1999 after failing to release an album.[1] Roberts' bandmate George Donoso went on to significant success in indie rock circles with The Dears

AN AMERICAN DRAFT DODGER IN THUNDER BAY Sam Roberts tabbed by AVH
Dmin
He was born in a small town
G Amin Emin
And he was given every reason to stay
Dmin G Amin Emin
Hallelujah, Mississippi, postcard living no sign of decay
Dmin G Amin Emin
Till Vietnam moved next door, then Hallelujah was off to war
Dmin
In the dream he couldn't finish the deed
G Amin Emin
He didn't smoke any weed so why leave?
Dmin Gmin A
Going where I can't be found
Dmin Gmin A
And I won't be coming 'round
Dmin
His father Tom said you better sign on
G Amin, Emin
You'd better take up your gun and fight
Dmin
I got nothing against them Viet Cong
G Amin Emin
What did they do wrong and why am I right?
Dmin
He's on his way to Thunder Bay
G Amin, Emin
Crossed the border late at night
Dmin
And it was high stakes until he saw the Great Lakes
G Amin, Emin
And he felt the cold wind bite
Dmin Gmin A
Going where I can't be found
Dmin Gmin A
And I won't be coming 'round
Dmin
No, I'm an American on the Canadian Shield
Bflat F A
And I'm putting down roots in your frozen fields
Dmin Bflat
It gets cold but you feel so good to be a stranger in a town and you're
F A
understood
Dmin
Missing his home, he would wake up in a cold sweat
Dmin G Amin, Emin
And pick up the phone and hope that Tom found a way to forget
Dmin
He's been teaching at the high school, learning the game
G Amin, Emin
In Thunder Bay we're all the same
Dmin
He's one of us, he has our trust
G Amin Emin
But there's no going back once the line is crossed
Dmin
I'm an American on the Canadian Shield
Bflat F A
And I'm putting down roots in your frozen fields
Dmin Bflat
It gets cold but you feel so good to be a stranger in a town and you're
F A
understood
Dmin
You can't ask what you're asking me to do
C F A
And I hope you understand when I refuse
Dmin
I'm going North with my point of view
C F A
And I'm never gonna think the same as you
Dmin C F A
And I'm where I can't be found
Dmin C F A
And I won't be coming 'round
