Up In Canada - Larry Norman

When I was up in Canada, I didn’t have much money

My shoes had holes and my feet were cold

My nose was kinda runny.

(it wasn’t funny)

I met a longhair on the street

He said, «Look, you look like you’d like to eat.»

I said, «A glass of Coke and a hotdog’s fine,»

He said, «Well, how 'bout some bread and a glass of wine?»

Lead me on, lead me on, lead me on

Lead me on where you’re going

You know my body’s tired by my heart’s inspired

My hunger’s growing

Lead me on, lead me on, lead me on

Lead me on where you’re going

You know my body’s tired by my heart’s inspired

My hunger’s growing

He took a loaf of Wonder bread, and then he bowed his head

And then he filled my cup, «Drink it up,» he said

It tasted better than the health food blend

He looked straight into my eyes — I was quite surprised!

He said, «You're locked inside but I can set you free

And you will live forever if you follow me.»

Lead me on, lead me on, lead me on

Lead me on where you’re going

You know my body’s tired by my heart’s inspired

My hunger’s growing

Lead me on, lead me on, lead me on

Lead me on where you’re going

You know my body’s tired by my heart’s inspired

My hunger’s growing
