Winnipeg

I’m a banjo-playin’, Winnipegin’, windy-day fool
I’m eatin’ sushi and tofu, playin’ guitar too
And I’m folkin’ it up on the best side of town
But I gotta catch the bus I cannot hang around

Well my thumb was up, you picked me up, you brought me here
I passed on the turkey, passed on the beer
But I’ll eat up your omlettes with ketchup and care
‘Cause I’m heading north and won’t be eating much up there

You’re an innovator, mover-shaker getting things done
And you’re solvin’ my problems and I’m havin’ fun
And you’re telling me that what’s yours is mine
Well my weekend was strange but now I’m feeling fine
