State Radio - Barnstorming lyrics

My father was a haystack man Always said, Son go a find what you can He said, The guns get jammed up in the sand Don't let them try to fool you I said, But daddy we ain't fighting the Cong no more He said, You're going over there to lose the very same war I said, Nothing you can do is gonna make me stay You gotta let others have their glory day 'Cause you know the whole town's getting together in Leeland's barn Everyone's getting there nice shoes on Girls are all cutting up their confirmation dresses Streets will be empty tomorrow as the whole town confesses It's a barnstorming, yeah Gonna leave my bed tomorrow It's gonna be a barnstorming, yeah Won't hold a head of sorrow 'Cause it's a lovely heartbreak, lovely heartbreak Now Ginny, she was up to no good As up to no good as she could sometimes be I used to lie awake at night Just thinking about her being up to no good with me She said, Just like the flower to the bees I'm gonna give you a little something before you go over seas 'Cause all I could do was stammer Yes, yes please and look in the other direction 'Cause it's gonna be a barnstorming, yeah Gonna leave my bed tomorrow It's gonna be a barnstorming, yeah Won't hold a head of sorrow 'Cause it's a lovely heartbreak, oh, oh, oh lovely heartbreak 'Cause I never been laid and so it goes Never danced before so stoned It was the first time I didn't want to go Now I wish I could take it all back again She spit in my hand Said, Boy I'm gonna make you a man It was all I could do to stand And ask the levy to hold and hold and hold and hold 'Cause it's gonna be a barnstorming, yeah Gonna leave my bed tomorrow It's gonna be a barnstorming, yeah Gonna hold a head of sorrow 'Cause it's a lovely heartbreak, oh, oh, oh lovely heartbreak
