about

I've done quite a few versions of this song, this I believe was the first done in Texas with country studio musicians.

lyrics

'I won't lead you into morning, but I won't crowd you when you're wrong,
and I may leave you without warning, if I think you take too long...

I've got no time for time's sake, when you're too young and your hands shake, whenever you get too close to the answer --
Canadian Dancer, Canadian Dancer, Canadian Dancer...it's all right.

I see you stand out in the lightening, you're just too young to see the storm,
Your lack of fear is frightening, you're much too guilty to be warm...

Still I've got no times for time's sake, when you're too young and your hand's shake, whenever you get too close to the answer --
Canadian Dancer, Canadian Dancer, Canadian Dancer, it's all right....Canadian Dancer.

(First verse and Chorus again)
