a lot of people think that the milk man is the brother , i think milk man is another person of this story , "it was a cold glass bottle of milk that got delivered every morning at nine" , it means the milk man saw a lot of things about this family, and at the end jack white is singing "well now u heard ANOTHER SIDE to the story, but u wanna know how it ends? if u must know the truth about the tale go and ask the milk man" and it means that milk man knows another side , well this is my opinion

Best Raconteurs song. Period.

Beats the everloving shit out of 'Steady, as she goes'

No, I think Billy sleeps in the back of his truck, and his brother sleeps inside (very small house) The mom is likely drunk when the milkman shows up and invites him in, he gives the kid his hat. She gives the younger brother a bottle of gin so he'll go away. The priest is Billy's dad, but quickly left. The priest shows up and catches them and probably sees the drunk kid too. Although the milkman escapes. Then boyfriend shows up, sees them fighting, and attacks the priest. Then Billy wakes up.

Billy has to be the milkman cause he found the bottle of milk before he entered the house, so i think billy just finished his job as a milkman this morning and just want to return home, where he discovered the "big surprise" because his dad just wanted to give more money to his mum. But his dad came at the wrong time. The boyfriend was also there. So billy found a bottle of milk IN HIS TRUCK and went in. If billy is not the milkman, why should he found this bottle outside the house?

of course billy has to be the milkman cause he found the bottle of milk before he entered the house, so i think billy just finished his milkmanjob this morning and just want to return home, where he discovered the "big surprise" because his dad just wanted to give more money to his mum. But his dad came at the wrong time. The boyfriend was also there. So billy found a bottle of milk IN HIS TRUCK and went in.

3:42 until the end. the fuckin best part!

Lol...me too. Well I've tried raw milk before but I don't indulge. It wreaks havoc on the vocal chords and I enjoy singing Jack White song way too much for that. (Ain't nobody got time fo dat!) lol

[91rnchantel]

Hahaha LOL. I suppose so. I have never had fresh unpasteurized milk before, So I wouldn't know.. Plus, I dislike milk generally anyway.

[Scott S]

I sure hope the milk was some of that raw grass-fed deliciousness...fresh from the teat of the rare Guernsey cow. I'm pretty sure he could've used some of it's superfood healing properties in a crisis such as this.

I love how he sings about the Carolina in some of his songs, as I've grown up there. :P

[Victor Lopez]

You're right. BUT the milkman is having an affair with the mom. "Delivered every morning at 9" the milkman is also giving booze to the brothers. The brother that walks in at the end singing is the 10 year old boy, drunk. Epic song...
