Listen Rose, every man can't
be Andrew Carnegie.
Musicians, the world needs two.
I spent a lot of time leaning
out the window
I've seen days where everything's
changed overnight
I waited until I became desensitized
Then you came along
and made it all come alive
Thanks for the milk,
bottled up dog fat
Thanks for the cherries
and the kisses of spring
Thanks for the love, bottled up dog fat
I got the message you were
trying to send it to
I just got back from talking with a shotgun
I said shotgun,
how you make your way in the dark?
He said it's easy to see
I just go through whatever's
in front of me
I've been digging through the years
with a backhoe
I turned around and saw
that half of my life
Passed by, while I still got the other half
I got a laugh when I feel like
I'm gonna die
Thanks for the milk,
bottled up stuff, man
Thanks for the cherries
and your kisses are sweet
Thanks for the love,
bottled up stuff, man
I got the message you were
trying to send to me
I got the message
I got the message you've
been tryin' to send to me
Thanks for the love that
comes down, man
I got the message you've
been tryin' to send to me
Yeah, thanks for the milk and the heat
So you're raising the back road
You can go way out there
Without a doubt, don't care
In your world, it's a given
It's a little piece of heaven
They can never take the day
Yeah, thanks for the love
Baby
Thanks for the milk
You bottled us down
Man, I got the message
you were trying to send to me
I got the message you were
trying to send to me
I got the message you were
trying to send to me
Thanks for the milk
I don't have to die for you
