Maurice
Maurice was the one and only drifter
To wander in to my home town
I followed him past the downtown hipsters
He took me to the underground
I said don't go, he was already leaving
Ontario, along the St. Lawrence Seaway
I felt better when I heard that he saved you
He jumped in front of the passing car
The driver didn't see you on the two lane highway
Maurice jumped out like a shooting star
If you want the truth don't ask my sister
Her imagination has gone wild
If you're by the shores on the Champlain highway
You can ask Maurice at the end of the bar
I said don't go, he was already leaving
Ontario, along the St. Lawrence Seaway
Time moves on it's a beast of burden
With twists and turns like an unsolved crime
A good-bye kiss from a small town drifter
Falls in between the truth and lies
I said don't go, he was already leaving
Ontario, along the St. Lawrence Seaway
To wander in to my home town
I followed him past the downtown hipsters
He took me to the underground
I said don't go, he was already leaving
Ontario, along the St. Lawrence Seaway
I felt better when I heard that he saved you
He jumped in front of the passing car
The driver didn't see you on the two lane highway
Maurice jumped out like a shooting star
If you want the truth don't ask my sister
Her imagination has gone wild
If you're by the shores on the Champlain highway
You can ask Maurice at the end of the bar
I said don't go, he was already leaving
Ontario, along the St. Lawrence Seaway
Time moves on it's a beast of burden
With twists and turns like an unsolved crime
A good-bye kiss from a small town drifter
Falls in between the truth and lies
I said don't go, he was already leaving
Ontario, along the St. Lawrence Seaway
