I've always liked this song because Gord "played" around with his voice a bit. He changed his cadence and timing a bit to offer an almost "blues" type of sound. If you're scratching your head and saying "what the hell is he talking about", then I can't help you. But I heard it as a stretch, and I appreciated it.
