Текст песни Big Rude Jake - Girl In The Pink Canoe

There's a board-walk on the lake shore,
Back in my hometown
It's a place where couples meet
To watch the sun go down.
And there's a boy on the board-walk,
Pining all alone.
I asked him what was on his mind,
He answered sad and low;

I'm in love with the girl
The girl in the Pink Canoe
Who lives up in the bush lands
On the banks of the old Yazoo
She shines like a rose,
With her petals all covered in dew
She's the only one for me,
The girl in the pink Canoe

Let me tell you brother,
It really is a glorious view
All of natures wonders
Spread out in front of you

I wanna ride down the river
Take a trip through the old Bayou,
I wanna shoot the foaming rapids
With the Girl in the Pink Canoe

Far from home and all alone
While the White capped waves rode high
Lost at sea, she sprung a leak,
In the middle of a dark and stormy night!
She stroked and stroked in her little pink boat
But it was to no avail
She tossed and turned and chugged and churned
And let go a mournful wail!

"Won't someone please come rescue me
And Board my boat and sail me home?"

I called out to the girl,
The girl in the Pink Canoe
If you would let me, I would gladly,
Come to rescue you.
I've got an oar, and I'll row you back to shore
And on that shore I'll kiss the girl
The Girl in the pink Canoe.
