LYRICS
Halfway to the North Pole
Wondering what’s our goal
Gonna pop a cork
In upstate New York
The music scene’s been seen
Does the pop go on top?
Is what the critics deem
Considered on the spot?
Stop! Think on our own… why not?
If you’re not careful you will
Catch a death of a chill
The winter’s cold upon the hill
Standing on the face of a Catskill
Grab a recorder and guitar
Create a lyric… write a bar
About the folk of folk
Fires of imagination stoke
Stop! Think on our own… why not?

LYRICS
Little pink shacks in the outback
In the Catskills… before the Adirondacks
Chorus
Hey, hey “they shut down the NY (state) thruway”
By the time we got to Woodstock
Believin’ all the folklore talk?
About Bob Dylan
Dunno why I’m afraid of him
Could be sarcasm
Then again, could be the color of his skin
Chorus
Down a dirt road… no place to unload
Puttin’ up a fence… some sort-of defense
Chorus

Music from Big Pink is the debut studio album by The Band. Released in 1968, it employs a distinctive blend of country, rock, folk, classical, R&B, and soul. The music was composed partly in “Big Pink”, a house shared by Rick Danko, Richard Manuel and Garth Hudson in West Saugerties, New York. — Wikipedia
