lyrics

"That night, Tommy parked a U-haul in the driveway, and told me he was leaving"

I didn't get nowhere
for going soft
Brother, I've been sleeping
on this couch for way too long

Brad, you say my boss is
just no good
She could be the devil
I'm still going on my way

So say goodnight
Say goodnight
to part-time living
Say goodnight
to losers winning
Say goodnight
to nights alone
My final shift is ending

Daddy set me down and told me, Son
You can be a star just like the satellites in space
They're flying off to where the people care
I don't want to leave you
But you're going to anyway

So say goodnight
Say goodnight
to just you and me
Say goodnight
to store 33
Say goodnight
to brothers come before the company

Say goodnight
to part time living
Say goodnight
to losers winning
Say goodnight
to nights alone
my final shift is ending, Brad

"So Tommy drove that rental van West, and said goodbye to Minnesota. Out in the desert, he'd be a new man, trading in that blue shirt, for a necktie. Next time, on Blue Shirts...."
