lyrics

Well we went to Alberta, to see the farmland
But when we got there, she made me work the floorhand.
And then we went to Saskatoon, to see the bridges
But when we got there, she made me unbutton my britches, yeah

Couldn’t think of my last words to say
As my world started slipping away from me girl, you magic girl.

Then we went to Vancouver, to see Whistler Mountain,
But when we got there, I couldn’t find the fountain.
And then we went to California, to see the ocean
But when we got there, she made me drink her potion.

Couldn’t think of mylast words to say
As my world started slipping away from me girl, you magic girl.

Then we paddled up to Flinflon, to see the northern shield
But when we got there, she laid me to the field.
And then we went to Montreal, to see the dancing ladies
But when we got there, she made me play the ‘80’s, oh no.

Couldn’t think of last words to say
As my world started slipping away from me girl, you magic girl.

Now we’re headed to Hawaii, in order to get laid
But when we get there, the ladies will make us pay.
And now we’re going to Australia, to see the mighty Thunder,
But when we get there, she’ll make me go down under…

I couldn’t think of my last words to say
As my world started slipping away from me girl, you magic girl.
