Elton John - Tumbleweed Connection Released: 03/01/1970 Ballad Of A Well-Known Gun Come Down In Time Country Comfort Son Of Your Father My Father's Gun Where To Now St. Peter? Love Song Amoreena Talking Old Soldiers Burn Down The Mission

Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin

I took myself a blue canoe
And I floated like a leaf
Dazzling, dancing
Half enchanted
In my Merlin sleep

Crazy was the feeling
Restless were my eyes
Insane they took the paddles
My arms they paralysed

So where to now St. Peter
If it's true I'm in your hands
I may not be a Christian
But I've done all one man can
I understand I'm on the road
Where all that was is gone
So where to now St. Peter
Show me which road I'm on
Which road I'm on

It took a sweet young foreign gun
This lazy life is short
Something for nothing always ending
With a bad report

Dirty was the daybreak
Sudden was the change
In such a silent place as this
Beyond the rifle range

I took myself a blue canoe
