Whitehorse - Manitoba Bound lyrics
[Whitehorse - Manitoba Bound lyrics]
We up and flew the coop way out to Manitoba
September 1981
My mother found herself some kind of trouble
Some unspeakable thing that she had done
Along comes one talk dark
And handsome stranger
Miss, it don't matter what you did
Then my brother Jd he appeared that winter
Neck as long as 15 other kids
Now there's a point at which
I'm gonna make shit up
When the truth starts boring me to tears
But so far, I'll just stick to simple facts
Cuz I ain't had to make shit up in years
Now we grew up not knowing
We wеre extra terrеstrials
Fell out of coldest Northern Lights
With our ticks and our kinks
And our crazy mama
Everything is gonna work out right
It ain't pretty but that's
How this cookie crumbles
And I do now and then at the thought of it
It's funny once the murky water passes under
Underneath the old Maryland bridge
September 1981
My mother found herself some kind of trouble
Some unspeakable thing that she had done
Along comes one talk dark
And handsome stranger
Miss, it don't matter what you did
Then my brother Jd he appeared that winter
Neck as long as 15 other kids
Now there's a point at which
I'm gonna make shit up
When the truth starts boring me to tears
But so far, I'll just stick to simple facts
Cuz I ain't had to make shit up in years
Now we grew up not knowing
We wеre extra terrеstrials
Fell out of coldest Northern Lights
With our ticks and our kinks
And our crazy mama
Everything is gonna work out right
It ain't pretty but that's
How this cookie crumbles
And I do now and then at the thought of it
It's funny once the murky water passes under
Underneath the old Maryland bridge
