Frozen Puck To The Head - Lyrics by Captain Tractor


Lyrics
He played in the minors, he was a puck stop
One day he drove into this truck stop
When he saw her above the crowd and the din
And his heart made a noise like a truck you forgot to plug in
She saw him walk in and she thought he was cutewith his hockey hair and his game day suit
She handed him a menu and she smiled in the prettiest wayand her lips wer as red as the jello in the window display
She said please excuse me but do you mind if I askaren't you the face I've seen through the masktheir eyes met as she handed him the wonderbread
REFRAIN:
Love hit him
Love hit him
Love hit him like a frozen puck to the head
He was real quiet as he ate his mealjust listenin' to the radio play Rita Mc
Neilall the while thinking about asking for a datetill he looked at the clock and saw he was gonna be late
He left his heart in that greasy spoonhe had no idea he'd fall in love in Saskatoonhe laced up quick and took a whole lot of blameand he prayed to god he could keep his mind on the game
One went off the pad
One went off the skates
One went in the top shelf he couldn't concentratehe didn't give a damn about the goal light flashin' red
REFRAIN
Let five goals in three minuteswhat could he do his heart wasn't in it
They put in the backup, the boy got depressed
He quit on the spot and went to get dressed
He drove real fast right back to the diner
Hoping he wasn't too late to find her
Kitchen radio was tuned in to the game
When he ran up beside her and looked at her tag for her name
He said "hey Mabel my name's Dan
I'm a lousy goalie but a real nice manand I just got a feeling that you and I were meant to be"
She said "alright but I don't get off work until three"
Well they got married I swear it's the truth
The whole wedding party was missing a tooth
He went back to hockey but he's a defenseman instead
REFRAIN (x2)
Like a frozen puck to the head
Like a frozen puck to the head
