noah reid - minneapolis lyrics
we flew into minnesota
and waited at the baggage carousel
and we were told there’d be a snowstorm
on the drive to some hotel
and all the girls were getting facials
and the boys weren’t feeling well
so i got out and started walking
to where i couldn’t tell
minneapolis was empty
it had an old midwestern vibe
i had my yellow leather gloves on
and it was nice and cold outside
i had a beer in some old barroom
i was the only person there
except for one young couple
with a boy in a wheelchair
started walking to the soundcheck
through the twilight empty streets
i passed a mural of bob dylan
while i was listening to tom waits
i read a poem in the green room
out loud for all to hear
and it meant nothing to anybody else
but i didn’t really care
and up on stage we talked in circles
every night’s about the same
but there’s nowhere else that i hear cheering
when someone says my name
and we climbed into a private jet
to take us out of town
and i thought we might not make it
as the snow was coming down
