A song about how carrying a canoe is a metaphor for carrying the weight of the world on one's shoulders.

The yoke is a moulded piece of wood that attaches from one gunnel to the other of a canoe. The yoke is used when a person carries a canoe by themselves. Also known as 'soloing' a canoe.

The song is also about how to just sit back and relax. Leave the worries to others sometimes.
