THE PERC PRESENTS THE FURIOUS
SWAMPRIDERS MAN-I-TOBA
I saw me first time on a train
Never wanted to go back again
When ever I had to change a place
All left behind in a smeary haze
Chorus:
And then her shoulder
I couldn't hold her
See me down and out
In Manitoba
It was in the year of the dragon
I had my bed on a rollin' waggon
Holding on to the big big dream
And what is left
A grand cloud of grey cream
Chorus
Freewheelin' it's my business
A hopeful looser with a handsome chest
Sweet little white birds all around my thumb
Before I die I'll turn stone deaf and dumb
Chorus
Words: Emilio Winschetti
Music: Tom Redecker
