Lightfoot

The Guess Who

Sidemen come out first

John Stockfish base guitar

Looks at the world through the eyes of Nashville,

The Riverboat and Charlie McCoy

He's just a boy



The lead guitarist Red Shea who's really come a long, long way

since rythym rocker jingle jangle

And go Red!



And Lightfoot

Edwardian, suddenly striped

His hair blondish and poetic

He is less than vinyl perfect

His foot is a precise anchor for the husk and vibrance of his voice



He is the image of Alberta

The side street near Chicago

The grim beauty of Toronto



He is an artist

He is an artist

He is an artist painting sistine masterpieces of pine and fur and backwoods

Still echos long ago the winter night of black july and then the outcome

Of an early cleveland rainfall



I sit softly among the rest waiting there for him to paint his pictures

And as the go-go girl went round and our heads were in a spin I thought about

The Crossroads, In the Early Morning Rain and Rosanna



I'm not saying that I'm sory

I'm just telling you this story

And when Lightfoot's magic calls

You can write it on your walls

'Cause that's what walls are for



He is an artist.
