18 Mar 15 - 12:05 AM (#3694955) Subject: Lyr Add: IT'S HARD TO KEEP A WHITE SHIRT CLEAN From: Jim Dixon There are several videos of this at YouTube. I made this transcription from Spotify. IT'S HARD TO KEEP A WHITE SHIRT CLEAN As sung by Corb Lund on "Losin' Lately Gambler" (2009) Well, it's hard to keep a white shirt clean. You boys likely know what I mean. You live your life on the road, and that's how it goes. It's hard to keep a white shirt clean. Well, it's hard to keep a white shirt clean When you're in the band a-makin' the scene. You spend all your time in funky old dives. It's hard to keep a white shirt clean. Well, Willie P said he likes the crisp white lines. Willie said the ladies like 'em too. Said he used to travel with a board and an iron Till his missus said: "You and me's through." Well, it's hard to keep a white shirt clean. You boys likely know what I mean. Lipstick on the collar, a whoop and a holler. It's hard to keep a white shirt clean. Well, it's hard to keep a white shirt clean. When it gets washed in with your jeans. Half a cup o' bleach in with the sheets. It's hard to keep a white shirt clean. Well, Willie P said he likes the crisp white lines. Willie said the ladies like 'em too. Said he used to travel with a board and an iron Till his missus said: "You and me's through." Well, it's hard to keep a white shirt clean. You boys likely know where I lean. It's just a little beer; listen, dear: It's hard to keep a white shirt clean. Well, Willie P said he likes the crisp white lines. Willie said the ladies like 'em too. Said he used to travel with a board and an iron Till his missus said: "You and me's through." Well, it's hard to keep a white shirt clean. You boys likely know what I mean. You live your life on the road, and that's how it goes. It's hard to keep a white shirt clean. You spend all your time in funky old dives. It's hard to keep a white shirt clean. The old mare's mean, and horse shit's green. It's hard to keep a white shirt clean. |
