When my shift is over
and i'm headed home
i don't listen to the radio
i like to be alone, i like to be alone
i've had my fill of people
and all that factory noise
i listen to the engine
it's a sound that i enjoy
it's a sound that i enjoy
So i drive on past the drive-in
on past the movie lights
past the fenced in fantasies
that slip into the night
i slip into the night
Chorus:
down in the milltown
the milltown so low
hang your head over
feel the wind blow
I wonder what's for dinner
if she'll be waiting there
she has to wake up early
she has to do her hair
she has to do her hair
And if i need a cold one
there's a tavern up the street
the company of loners
is still company to me
yes, they're company to me
Repeat chorus
And if my dreams treat me badly
and i cry out at night
shake me to my senses
and i will be alright
yes, i will be alright
Repeat chorus twice
