Garbage Man
Love in the Dump: Unveiling the Bittersweet Tale of the Garbage Man
Lyrics
Have you ever been mistreated?
Expressing experience of being mistreated
By someone you shouldn't have loved
Reflecting on being mistreated by someone undeserving of love
Have you ever been mistreated?
Reiterating the theme of mistreatment in relationships
By someone you shouldn't have loved
Emphasizing the pain of being mistreated by someone loved
Out of all the men my woman could've left me for
Comparing potential partners, expressing disappointment
She left me for the garbage man
Revealing that the woman left for the garbage man
No matter how bad she treated me
Despite mistreatment, unable to forget the woman's love
I still can't get her lovin out my mind
Stating persistent memories of the woman's love
No matter how bad she treated me
Repeating the impact of the woman's treatment on memory
Still can't get her lovin out my mind
Emphasizing the lingering effect of the woman's love
Every time I see a garbage can
Associating garbage cans with thoughts of the woman and the garbage man
I think about her and the garbage man all the time
Continuing the link between garbage cans and memories of the woman
If I ever get my woman to come back home
Expressing a desire to reunite with the woman
I'm gon buy myself a garbage truck
Expressing a humorous intent to buy a garbage truck if the woman returns
If I ever get my woman to come back
Reiterating the desire for the woman to come back
I'm gon buy myself a garbage truck
Reiterating the humorous intent to buy a garbage truck if the woman returns
When my garbage can get full
Referring to a full garbage can, suggesting a need for disposal
I'm gon take it and dump that stuff all in the woods
Expressing a whimsical idea of dumping garbage in the woods
