New Berlin by Mr. Dollar

It feels like winter never really got going this year in Minnesota and now spring is right around the corner. I rained here yesterday! I know to most of you that doesn't seem like a big deal but in Minnesota, in February - this is batshit crazy. Nashville has had more snow than Minneapolis this year.

Today I have a new song out called "New Berlin". A friend of mine said this was "slacker indie rock" which I think is a good description. When I wrote this song I didn't even know if "New Berlin" existed so I looked it up and it’s just west of Milwaukee. All the references in the song are true and geographically correct. I hope you like it!

Lyrics

Verse 1

I was headed up to new Berlin
Didn’t know where I was going
I was headed up to see a friend
To see what he was doing

He was watching TV
And playing on his phone

He was watching TV
And playing on his phone

Verse 2

We headed south of New Berlin
To Mattie’s Bar and Grill
We talk for hours until some said
You need to pay your bill

It beats watching TV
And playing on your phone

It beats watching TV
And playing on your phone

Chorus

I said hello to some friends
I had a drink and made amends
Even as this night ends
I know we'll do this again

Verse 3

We headed back to New Berlin
To see what Paul was up to
He was chilling, watching the game
The Milwaukee Bucks were up two

He was watching TV
And playing on his phone

He was watching TV
And playing on his phone

Verse 4

We headed east from new Berlin
Until we reach the shore
We dipped our toes into the lake
And talked about before

It beats watching TV
And playing on your phone

It beats watching TV
And playing on your phone

Chorus

I said hello to some friends
I had a drink and made amends
Even as this night ends
I know we’ll do this again
