Toolmaster of Brainerd Songtext
von Trip Shakespeare

He held a job at the Buckeye
Creamery
Toolmaster of Brainerd
He had a way with the old
machinery
Toolmaster of Brainerd
But on the day when the
shutdown came
All his old girlfriends looked the
same
He rumbled down for a change of
scenery
Hello, Toolmaster of Brainerd


Inside his case was a Gibson
Disaster
Toolmaster of Brainerd
He played guitar like a master
but faster
Toolmaster of Brainerd
He came to town on a charter bus
Too young and sweet to be
hustling us
He played guitar like a natural
disaster
Play on, Toolmaster of Brainerd

A letter came from the Buckeye
Creamery
It said, "Mr. Master of Brainerd
We′re going to start up the old
machinery
Mr. Master of Brainerd"
Then all this old girlfriends lined
up in the sky
And told him to kiss the Twin
Towns goodbye
He rumbled up north for a change of scenery
Goodbye, Toolmaster of Brainerd
