Soo Line Loons - What They Don't Tell You Lyrics

Well I’ve been waiting for the snow to finally fall
So I can shovel that churches parking lot
You know, God don’t pay much
But it’s the only job that I’ve got
Another time, you know, it feels like another life
I had my own tools and I showed up at nine
But there ain’t a foreman in his right mind
Who wants a drunk around his construction sight
So, I learned every line from every pamphlet in AA
But what they don’t tell you
Is that some things still won’t change
You’ll still be broke and unemployed
And your car still needs brakes
You can take your coffee black as a cave
It’ll never fill the hole
Of no one calling out your name
Well I got a brother
The other side of that St. Croix
He’s got a pretty wife
And a blue-eyed baby boy
He’s got a couch I know about
You know I helped him move it in
But there ain’t no room for me now
In that big old house of his
So I learned every line from every pamphlet in AA
But what they don’t tell you
Is that some things still won’t change
You’ll still be broke and unemployed
And your car still needs brakes
You can take your coffee black as a cave
It’ll never fill the hole
Of no one calling out your name

Well I’ve been waiting for the snow to finally fall
So I can shovel that churches parking lot
You know, God don’t pay much
But it’s the only job that I’ve got
Another time, you know, it feels like another life
I had my own tools and I showed up at nine
But there ain’t a foreman in his right mind
Who wants a drunk around his construction sight
So, I learned every line from every pamphlet in AA
But what they don’t tell you
Is that some things still won’t change
You’ll still be broke and unemployed
And your car still needs brakes
You can take your coffee black as a cave
It’ll never fill the hole
Of no one calling out your name
Well I got a brother
The other side of that St. Croix
He’s got a pretty wife
And a blue-eyed baby boy
He’s got a couch I know about
You know I helped him move it in
But there ain’t no room for me now
In that big old house of his
So I learned every line from every pamphlet in AA
But what they don’t tell you
Is that some things still won’t change
You’ll still be broke and unemployed
And your car still needs brakes
You can take your coffee black as a cave
It’ll never fill the hole
Of no one calling out your name
