Milkman from Milkman by Whiskey & Burlap

Verse 1:
Miss Betty was baking biscuits on a Tuesday night
When she started to realize
That the batter was burning and the recipe just was not right
So it came as no surprise

Verse 2:
When she opened up the oven and peeked right in well
What did she see inside
oh my my . . .
She started huffing and a puffing and blowing fit to save her life
Cause her biscuits had gone dry

Chorus:
Milkman Milkman Pour that milk right in the pan
You get to help me turn the damper down
Milkman Milkman Turn your truck around again
You don’t need to take that trip to town

Verse 3:
And I know that I seen you drivin by
Nearly every day
I hear your claptrap van come a rattling past me right outside
Heading Miss Betty’s way

Verse 4:
What can I do
And there’s no-one stopping by
Well the kitty-kat’s lappin and a nappin right beside her bowl
I can almost hear her cry

Chorus:
Milkman Milkman Pour that milk right in the pan
You get to help me turn the damper down
Milkman Milkman Turn your truck around again
You don’t need to take that trip to town

Bridge:
Well step on up and take a number get in line
Cause the people they all know
When its hot outside and you can’t find Nothin you can put on ice
There is nowhere else for you to go

Bridge 2:
And I never asked for much
Just a little touch
Cream cheese yes please I’ll take a roll with everything
A pat of butter did I stutter hear me sing

Chorus:
Milkman Milkman Pour that milk right in the pan
You get to help me turn the damper down
Milkman Milkman Turn your truck around again
You don’t need to take that trip to town
I hope that you won’t take that trip to town
