Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 St Vincent's he was white
I said, "You looked such a sight"
He said, "I don't feel no pain"
[Chorus]
And I know just what to do
And I know it's nothing new
We've been through this before
But I don't follow
Why must it be you?
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
And I know just what to do
And I know it's nothing new
We've been through this before
But I don't follow
Why must it be you?
[Chorus]
And I know just what to do
And I know it's nothing new
We've been through this before
But I don't follow
Why must it be you?
[Verse 3]
On a white train
Why must it be you?
On a white train
Why must it be you?
On a white train
