No One's Home
Milk Truck Blues: Navigating Life's Turbulence
Lyrics
Driving this shift from 9 to 5
Expressing the routine of working from 9 to 5.
Milk truck boogie just given' me my jive
Enjoying the rhythm and vibe of the milk truck on the job.
Must be one of those real bad days
Suggesting a particularly challenging or unfortunate day.
Cuz I can't seem to get my pay
Facing difficulties in receiving payment for work.
And I knock, knock and no ones home
Encountering a situation where knocking on a door results in no response.
I love the way that she orders up her cream
Admiring the way someone orders coffee with cream at a specific time.
Tuesday mornings at 9:15
Highlighting a specific time (Tuesday mornings at 9:15) associated with a pleasant memory.
but now days she doesn't wanna open up her door
Noting a change in the person's behavior, refusing to open the door.
guess she doesn't want my milk no more
Suggesting a rejection or disinterest in the speaker's offerings.
I used have the country jail
Reflecting on a past experience in a country jail.
but all of them crooks used to give me hell
Recalling challenges and conflicts faced in the past.
now i'm set up in delivery
Transitioning to a new job in delivery.
for a real good service i'm guaranteed
Expressing confidence in providing excellent service in the new role.
Driving this shift from 9 to 5
Repeating the routine of working from 9 to 5.
Milk truck boogie just given' me my jive
Reiterating the enjoyment of the milk truck experience.
Must be one of those real bad days
Repeating the idea of facing a challenging day.
Cuz I can't seem to get my pay
Reiterating the difficulty in receiving payment for work.
And I knock, knock and no ones home
Experiencing a repeated situation of knocking with no response.
I used have the country jail
Recalling a past experience in a country jail (repeated).
but all of them crooks used to give me hell
Reiterating challenges faced with crooks in the past.
now i'm set up in delivery
Emphasizing the transition to a new job in delivery (repeated).
for a real good service i'm guaranteed
Reiterating confidence in providing excellent service in the new role.
I love the way that she orders up her cream
Reiterating admiration for the way someone orders coffee with cream.
Tuesday mornings at 9:15
Repeating the mention of a specific, pleasant time (Tuesday mornings at 9:15).
but now days she doesn't wanna open up her door
Reiterating the change in the person's behavior, refusing to open the door.
guess she doesn't want my milk no more
Reiterating a sense of rejection or disinterest in the speaker's offerings.
