Could it possibly have been the same one! The song in question was Gordon Lightfoot's "Canadian Railroad Trilogy" (the 7:04 version found on Gord's Gold). I was drinking with a homesick expat - who, I swear, dabbed away a tear. We made it to the fifth playing before the bartender unplugged the jukebox. In retrospect, we should've added "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" (a mere 6:30) to the mix. This was in the spring of 1990. I believe it was the first CD jukebox I'd ever seen.
