White Lady

White lady she don't care
Night is falling rain in the air
Wrapped up tight in your silver dress
You are the image of happiness
Comes around with a familiar tune
Walks right in with her chain and her broom
White lady passing from hand to hand
Don't stop to think don't try to understand

Sometimes she travels with kings
Sometimes she dances with me

But when she dances and sings
It's so hard to say no
It's so hard to say no
It's so hard to say no to the white lady

Though she's white as the driven snow
This lady's clean as clean can go
White lady with her marble face
Feel no remorse there is no disgrace
Her arms sure don't keep you warm
But she keeps you moving

White lady you're so high and bright
When will I think of the sacrifice

Sometimes she's bought by kings
Sometimes she's given to me

But when she dances and sings
It's so hard to say no
It's so hard to say no
It's so hard to say no to the white lady

Her head is clear as the mountain air
Her eyes are shining with the light
To whom will she bring delight

White lady's riding high tonight
To whom will she bring delight
White lady's riding high tonight
White lady's riding high tonight
White lady's riding high tonight
White lady's riding high tonight
