Matapedia
Lyricist:Anna Mcgarrigle, Kate Mcgarrigle
Her hair was dyed black and she was bending down Picking something from off the ground She was seventeen, and he said, 'Oh my God, it's Kate' She said 'No, I'm the daughter of Kate My name is Martha, who are you? Ma never told me, never told me 'bout you'
He put his big middle-aged hands upon her shoulders And he looked her in the eyes Just like a boy of nineteen would do And she was not afraid, no, she was not afraid
Once upon a time two kids in love In a car were flyin' over mountains Trying to catch a boat That'd take 'em up river to home

Well, we made the boat with minutes to spare And we crossed on over to the other side And back home, safe and sound But I could not slow down, no, I could not slow down
And we raced the Matapedia, sixty minutes, sixty miles Thirty minutes, thirty miles Twenty minutes twenty miles, ten, nine, eight But I could not slow down, no, I could not slow down I was not afraid, no, I was not afraid I could not slow down 'cause I was not afraid
