Lord, why did you put me in Minnesota
if I was only to drive around
Lord, why did you put me in Minnesota
if I was only to drive around on this circular highway
turning left into eternity
is this your way to tell me
that I've gone astray?
Lord why did you make me
some shiftless poet
if I was only to write
a song that is solely unholy
and vague - crude sentimentality
is this your way
to tell me that I've gone astray?
is this your way
to tell me that I've gone astray?
