If Fins Were Wings

Ripping and a roaring across the ol’ Canusa line
I’m a long gone daddy, gone a long long time
Calling up my baby back in Sault Ste Marie
She knows that I know I know where I wanna be

And when I get home we gonna get down to it
I’ve been driving all night gots to push on through it

I’m a long gone daddy
Gone a long long time
Driving a midnight Caddy
And if these fins were wings she’d fly

Well I ain’t seen my baby in a week and a half
Feels more like a year, if you don’t do the math
We’re about as tight as two coats of paint
When we’re in, we’re in
When we ain’t, we ain’t

And when I get home we gonna get down to it
I’ve been driving all night gots to push on through it

I’m a long gone daddy
Gone a long long time
Driving a midnight Caddy
And if these fins were wings she’d fly

Now, hey hey there mister
You know I miss my girl
It’s been a long long time since I kissed her
I feel like I’ve been around the world

Now if there’s a moral hidden in the song
It’s not that life is short
You’re just dead for so long

I’m a long gone daddy
Gone a long long time
Driving a midnight Caddy
And if these fins were wings she’d fly

I’m a long gone daddy
Gone a long long time
Driving a midnight Caddy
And if these fins were wings she’d fly
