Frazey Ford

I was a sailboat
I was a sailor
I was a sign of our goin' or our comin'
I made it happen
Down in the schoolyard
I was a firecracker exploding
Hallelujah!
The sparks flew up to heaven
They saw my smile
And I was laughin' so hard
Hallelujah!
The sparks flew up to heaven
And I left the sober people
With their cold hearts
Sometimes there is someone
Someone who knows you
But when you are sad
There is no one
We're on a red bicycle
Rollin' and rollin'
I'm quicksilver, I'm a dealmaker
Don't you cross me once
Hallelujah!
The sparks flew up to heaven
They saw my smile
And I was laughin' so hard
Hallelujah!
The sparks flew up to heaven
And I left the sober people
With their cold hearts
Nothin' can harm me
To this day they don't wrong me
And I don't know
If I'm dirty or clean
Well I was a sailboat
I was a sailor
And I was a firecracker exploding
And o! why do you cry,
Sister, cry?
I've been talkin' with angels
and it's gonna be fine
Hallelujah!
The sparks flew up to heaven
And I left the sober people
With their cold hearts
