about

"It’s about hockey and your child growing up." - John

lyrics

START THE CAR
Early morning just past six
We’ll be there, skates and sticks
Seems like last week Bobby Skates
We chased that chair across the lake
Helmets bobbing on the players bench
Nervous parents, is my kid next?
Gate rattles open here comes the child
Skates on ice they’re running wild
Whistle blows, pucks in the net
Game’s all over. Time for hot chocolate
Start the car.

Days sneak by, turn to years
Sticks are slapping, the crowds all cheer
Down at the bar we’ll have a beer
See you all on the ice next year
I’ll sharpen your skates and start the car
Try to be wherever you are
It’s all a part of life’s big game
Sharpen the skates. Start the car.
