Paddlin' down the michigan
Catchin' all the fish i can
Breathin' holy air in my canoe
Groovin' down superior
Takin' taboos easier
Talkin' with the lord in my canoe
Send me no pillows i can dream on
I've seen all the nightmares i can bear to see
Gotta find the river to your kingdom in my canoe
Many moons on erie lake
Not a bottle of beer to break
Heaven knows i try best i can do
Maybe lake ontario
Gonna take me where i hope
Got to find the lord in my canoe
Paddlin' down the michigan
Catchin' all the fish i can
Breathin' holy air in my canoe
Send me no willows i can weep on
I've done all the crying i can bear to do
Lookin' for the tributary to your kingdom
In my canoe.
