It’s Hard to Keep a White Shirt Clean (for Willie P. Bennett)

Lyrics

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 and making the scene You spend all your time in funky old dives It's hard to keep a white shirt clean Willie P said he liked the crisp white lines Willie said the ladies like it too 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 A half a cup of bleach, in with the sheets It's hard to keep a white shirt clean Willie P said he liked the crisp white lines Willie said the ladies like it too 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, now listen dear It's hard to keep a white shirt clean Willie P said he liked the crisp white lines Willie said the ladies like it too 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
