"Bobcaygeon" lyrics

"Bobcaygeon"
(originally by The Tragically Hip)

I left your house this morning
About a quarter after nine
It coulda been the Willie Nelson
It could of been the wine

When I left your house this morning
It was a little after nine
It was in Bobcaygeon
Where I saw the constellations
Reveal themselves one star at a time

I drove back to town this morning
With working on my mind
I thought of maybe quittin'
I thought of leavin' it behind
Went back to bed this morning
And as I'm pullin' down the blind
Yeah the sky was dull and hypothetical
And fallin' one cloud at a time

That night in Toronto
With its checkerboard floors
Riding on horseback
And keeping order restored
'Til the men they couldn't hang
Stepped to the mic and sang
And their voices rang with that Aryan twang

I got to your house this morning
Just a little after nine
In the middle of that riot
Couldn't get you off my mind

So I'm at your house this morning
Just a little after nine
'Cause it was in Bobcaygeon
Where I saw the constellations
Reveal themselves one star at a time

That night in Toronto
With its checkerboard floors
Riding on horseback
And keeping order restored
'Til the men they couldn't hang
Stepped to the mic and sang
And their voices rang with that Aryan twang
