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... And they raced the Matapedia Sixty minutes sixty miles Thirty minutes thirty miles Twenty minutes twenty miles Ten nine eight.... And I was not afraid No, I was not afraid 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
