Lyrics

[Verse 1] I took myself a blue canoe And I floated like a leaf Dazzling, dancing half enchanted In my Merlin sleep Crazy was the feeling Restless were my eyes Insane, they took the paddles My arms they paralyzed [Chorus] So where to now, St. Peter? If it's true, I'm in your hands I may not be a Christian But I've done all one man can I understand I'm on the road Where all that was is gone So where to now, St. Peter? Show me which road I'm on Which road I'm on [Verse 2] It took a sweet young foreign gun This lazy life is short Something for nothing always ending With a bad report Dirty was the daybreak Sudden was the change In such a silent place as this Beyond the rifle range [Chorus] So where to now, St. Peter? If it's true, I'm in your hands I may not be a Christian But I've done all one man can I understand I'm on the road Where all that was is gone So where to now, St. Peter? Show me which road I'm on Which road I'm on [Outro] I took myself a blue canoe
