Downie, Gord - A Natural Lyrics
We'd line up cans on the picnic table
In the backyard across the long
You stood soaking wet in your bathing suit
Taking deadly aim with your BB gun
Kissed by the sun
You are a natural
You've just begun
With every can you'd hit you'd smile the thinnest smile
You'd barely savour the applause
Or the jealousy of the older ones
Just before you'd calmly killed a can, you'd cause
You are a natural
You are a natural
Beautiful and young
And with all my life, I'll probably miss those days
Wiled away with you spent on nothing much
Watching you shoulder things, take deadly aim
Your finger on the trigger, your gentle touch
You are a natural
You've only just begun
You are a natural
I'm the lucky one
I'm the lucky one
I'm the lucky one
I'm the lucky one

Downie, Gord A Natural Comments
BB gun a metaphor for a Boston Bruins signed hockey stick being used for target practice? That's Gord, being poetically brilliant as usual.
I don’t care if the rest of the world doesn’t listen to this, I’m going to.
Tell me that isn’t great.
This has become one of my all time favorite songs, to me this song is a masterpiece.
he is gord, he is a natural. he is the hard canadian......eh
This song gives me chills. I know these songs are all about people in his life, I'm sure this must be about one of this kids.
This and Fiddler's Green are the only songs to ever make me cry... Gord wrote so beautifully
Three and a half minutes and it's better than most movies. Staggering. Can't get over how he can write like that about this and know that his end was coming near. God, he was a natural...Gordie baby!
This album is so pure. I can't stop listening to it.
This makes you realise how much you will be missed. You had so much more to say.
Gord damn it. Tears in my eyes.
That Chorus takes my breath away.....KILLER
This is my favourite song so far.. I forget how many times I've replayed this... I haven't been through the entire album yet, but if this is any indication, man, I am totally there.. **Precious**
😙Amazing Giovanni. It's you vibe. ...a natural vibe ;) Hugs
Amazing Giovanni!!! 😙This is your vibe. A natural vibe. Really so cool. Hugs
Thank you kindly. Gord seemed to bring the best out of people (including me). He was very much 'a natural' in many ways. And that's what hits me the most..
💜💛💚💙
great song
She's a beaut Gord, just like you.
