You Never Call

  • The sky is threatening
    Bad weather is in the air
    And you always liked that
    'Cause excitement is everywhere

    And you always write me
    When a storm system is in the news
    And send me a link
    But now all I got is the blues

    'Cause you never call

    You're in heaven with nothing to do
    The ultimate vacation with no back pain
    And all we do is work, work, work

    You're on vacation
    We're working
    You're in heaven
    I'm working

    I know you're going to the hockey game
    The Red Wings are coming to town
    I saw your car in the parking lot
    In-N-Out Burger fries all around

    And I know Ben is with you
    'Cause you take him everywhere
    He brain to brained me
    And told me that you are still there

    But you never call
    You never call

    You're in heaven with nothing to do
    The ultimate vacation with no back pain
    And all we do is work, work, work

    You're on vacation
    We're working
    You're on in heaven
    I'm working

    You never call Writer/s: Neil Young
