Mr. Mclennen

Jann Arden


Mr. McLennen woke up one mornin’
Picked up his paper and died
There on the floor of the General Store
Where he started each day of his life

Barbara McDougal wrote in to The Bugle
Describing the tragic events
He laid down a dollar and loosened his collar
What a beautiful day it is

So long
Farewell
We all got a story to tell
So long so long
Farewell farewell
We all got a story
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
Oh, oh, oh oh oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah

Lenny Roy Parker drove off in the dark
With a beer and the joint he just rolled
Skid marks like a snake that led right to the lake
He thought, 'Man, what a weird way to go'

So long so long
Farewell farewell
We all got a story to tell
So long so long
Farewell farewell
We all got a story
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
Oh, oh, oh oh oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah

Donna, the lesbian sewage truck driver
Slept in her driveway again
The rocks through the windows
Threats, innuendos
Tonight would all come to an end

'Cause you don't mess with Donna
She's good and she's honest
But you'll do what you gotta do
Nobody was found
Not a word, not a sound
'Cause the Donna don't leave any clues
Donna don't leave any clues

So long so long
Farewell farewell
We all got a story to tell
So long so long
Farewell farewell
We all got a story to tell
So long so long
Good night
Don't forget to turn out the light
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
Oh, oh, oh oh oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
Don't forget to turn out the light
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
Don't forget to turn out the light
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
