Standing at my doorway I wondered why his hand was painted red 'It's just a scratch' he said Here we go again We stumbled to the car By the time we hit Prince Henry's he was white I said 'You look such a sight' He said 'I don't feel no pain' And I know just what to do And I know it's nothing new We've been through this before And I must follow Why must it be you (on a white train)? I stuck until the end Though you said I was no friend But you were blind I was much too kind On a white train Some will swill and some will sip Some just find a place where they don't slip Others take a kip On a white train And I know just what to do And I know it's nothing new We've been through this before And still I follow Why must it be you (on a white train)?
