When Will I Ever Learn?

Lyrics:
Once upon a time in Macon town
Cruising bars and playing lost and found
I met a girl who said to me..
"Best things in life are never free-ee"
I didn't ask her to explain
wasn't caught up in her game - no way

It happened when I made it home by 4 o'clock
I found the doors had all been locked
I found for getting home real late
this was the punishment I rate...


I didn't ask her to explain

wasn't caught up in her game - no way

That is when I decided to sleep out in the car
Most uncomfortable rest I had by far
Electric windows locked me in
By 5 o'clock the air was thin...
I had no reason to complain

wasn't caught up in some game - no way

That is why I chose the lawn o'er bucket seats

My overcoat and shirt I used for sheets

It was about then when I started off to dream
By 7, the rain began...
Now you've seen storms with a dark black sky
Well I saw Noah floating by - Oy Vey!

Chorus:
So tell me...
When will I ever learn?
When will I ever learn?
When will I ever learn? When will I ever learn?
When will I ever learn?
I'm just trying to do the best I can...
A delicate ode from the working man

That is when I decided to pack up and go in
Broke a window with an oak tree limb
to her I ranted this and that
She said 'The key was 'neath the mat!"
She didn't ask me to explain
Whatever happened to my brain ~ Touche!

Chorus:

So tell me...

When will I ever learn?

When will I ever learn?

When will I ever learn? When will I ever learn?

When will I ever learn?

I'm just trying to do the best I can...

A delicate ode from the working man

When will I ever learn?

When will I ever learn?

When will I ever learn? When will I ever learn?

When will I ever learn?
