Why Winter In Detroit?

Why winter in Detroit when it's so cold

And the wind sweeps out the frozen north and blows

And tears apart your far too skinny bones

Its just I need to have you hear to find these words

Without your face they're sticking like a curse

Well I haven't even wrote a single verse

I can't live, I can't sleep, I can't die til I hold you near

Because its kill, kill, kill or be killed

And its drink, drink, drink, drink,

'Til you've agreed to sell your car

But even still, I think I proved my point so well

That winter in Detroit is Hell.

Why winter in Detroit when you can stay

With me another boy stuck in this place

It's not too much a single bed and dust

Its just I need to have you hear despite this purse

Those boys have shoulders chipped clear to their nerves

Forged from steel and bourbon they're the worst

I can't live, I can't sleep, I can't die til I hold you near

Bands and the streets and the boys and it all

I'll take on anyone, I'll take on anyone

I got what I want and I won't let it go

I'll take on anyone, I'll take on anyone

The lions share of the time we spent

It won't be long we won't forget

We've learned the price of the distance well

I know you won't...

Why, Why, Why, Why Why, Why, Why Why

Why winter in Detroit, you're like a ghost

And the auto factory's have all been closed

But you don't work in no auto factory though
