YOU CAN'T BLAME THE TRAIN - Don McLean
I got crazy yesterday and I called her to say
Please baby won’t you come home tonight
I can’t even trust my brain to get my heart in from the rain
And the girl’s a hurricane all right
Early this morning after she was going
I sat down in a chair all alone
Called my best friend cryin’ asking him why
The girl’s always doing me wrong
He said: when the gates are all down and the lights are all flashing
And the whistle is screaming in vain
And you stay on the tracks ignoring the facts
Well you can’t blame the wreck on the train
No you can’t blame the wreck on the train
How many times have I promised myself
Not to do the same thing as before
I’ll swear I’ll leave it alone and believe it
Then turn around and do it some more
Fool me once and it’s shame on you
Fool me twice and it’s shame on me
That was my best friend’s warning when he called me this morning
Then he reminded me
He said: when the gates are all down and the lights are all flashing
And the whistle is screaming in vain
And you stay on the tracks ignoring the facts
Well you can’t blame the wreck on the train
No you can’t blame the wreck on the train
He said: when the gates are all down and the lights are all flashing
And the whistle is screaming in vain
And you stay on the tracks ignoring the facts
Well you can’t blame the wreck on the train
No you can’t blame the wreck on the train
No you can’t blame the wreck on the train
