Minnesota Girls by The Shackletons Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Guess the word is out, I’m treading water again
One thousand miles east of where the horizon line met its end
Half a country from where ukulele girls played
The same songs over and over, voices flatter than Winnipeg
[Chorus]
Why can't they all be Minnesota girls?
I’m sorry, Brian Wilson, but you were wrong
Why can't they all be Minnesota girls?
I’m sorry, Brian Wilson, but you were wrong
It's now thirty below and I can't feel my toes
Damn, it's great to be home
[Verse 2]
No longer fit in your trendy life in N.Y.C
But that’s okay, I’m kicking it with my friends at the 7th St. Entry
[Chorus]
Why can't they all be Minnesota girls?
I’m sorry, Brian Wilson, but you were wrong (Minnesota girls)
It's now thirty below and I can't feel my toes
Damn, it's great to be home
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Why can't they all be Minnesota girls?
I’m sorry, Brian Wilson, but you were wrong
Why can't they all be Minnesota girls? (Minnesota girls)
I’m sorry, Brian Wilson, but you were wrong (Minnesota girls)
It's now thirty below and I can't feel my toes
Damn, it's great to be home
Guess the word is out, I’m treading water again
One thousand miles east of where the horizon line met its end
Half a country from where ukulele girls played
The same songs over and over, voices flatter than Winnipeg
[Chorus]
Why can't they all be Minnesota girls?
I’m sorry, Brian Wilson, but you were wrong
Why can't they all be Minnesota girls?
I’m sorry, Brian Wilson, but you were wrong
It's now thirty below and I can't feel my toes
Damn, it's great to be home
[Verse 2]
No longer fit in your trendy life in N.Y.C
But that’s okay, I’m kicking it with my friends at the 7th St. Entry
[Chorus]
Why can't they all be Minnesota girls?
I’m sorry, Brian Wilson, but you were wrong (Minnesota girls)
It's now thirty below and I can't feel my toes
Damn, it's great to be home
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Why can't they all be Minnesota girls?
I’m sorry, Brian Wilson, but you were wrong
Why can't they all be Minnesota girls? (Minnesota girls)
I’m sorry, Brian Wilson, but you were wrong (Minnesota girls)
It's now thirty below and I can't feel my toes
Damn, it's great to be home
