CHORUS:
Oh don`t you go out paddlin` in a pink canoe.
`Cause I`ve done the same and my story is true.
`Cause if they catch you fishin` in a pink canoe -
Silver-grey motor boats will run over you!
Well out in the Chilcotins on Nimpo Lake,
The fish always jump and the scenery is great.
`Wilderness Rim` is where we`d head to,
Hubby and the scottie and the pink canoe. (CHORUS)
Well Hubby and I, we were paddlin` along,
Thinking to ourselves `Now what can go wrong?`
When silver-grey Lunns with their nine power horse
Started after us on a collision course. (CHORUS)
They had us in a circle we were bouncin` up and down.
They were hootin` and a hollerin` as they went around.
The `boys` of Nimpo Lake, they like to fish her too.
But they reel in their lines when they see a pink canoe! (CHORUS)
Well someday we may buy us another canoe,
We`ll be lookin` at yellow and green
And orange and maybe blue.
But we won`t be pickin` out no pink canoe,
`Cause I have seen what those motorboats can do!
