Everyone knows you were going
But I couldn't tell you when
You bought a postcard, your hands were new
And I knew I couldn't take you there
To a place that doesn't cast such a shadow
And the winter don't last so long
In our throats the war was born, then it's gone
Oh yeah, Milwaukee
Milwaukee, you're my one horse town
Milwaukee, Milwaukee
I knew we'd run with the tempo
And beat up your traffic hard
All the words I've writ, which build sings in
A glass sleep on the waking wall
In a place that doesn't cast such a shadow
And the waiting don't last so long
In our coats, your hands are warm, and they're ours
Oh yeah, Milwaukee
Milwaukee, you're my one horse town
Milwaukee, Milwaukee
