First Class - Greg MacPherson
The train had left the station
Traveling south along the Rhine
She came late to our compartment
And I know why And I know why
And I don't know why she's even back here
But she's got me all figured out
I watch her eyes in the glass as Köln slips past
She'll play me like the hand she's been playing
Since I landed in Brussels
The dining car smells of money
From America and France
All the liberal minded ladies
And the vulgar games of chance
I hold her hands and she tells me lies
Not just for my money no for a good time
I want so much to believe
That she's the one of us with no soul
When of course we both know and there's me
I left my provincial Canadian home
And I've spun out of control
Out of control
Much to see in so little time
And so much more to know
Yeah
I don't like the people and I don't like the wine
But I do like a woman with a mind of her own
Yeah
Much to see in so little time
And so much more to know
Yeah
I don't like the people and I don't like the wine
But I do like a woman with a mind of her own
Yeah
Much to see in so little time
And so much more to know
Yeah
I don't like the people and I don't like the wine
But I do like a woman with a mind of her own
Yeah
We got drunker that night than soldiers
But still she wouldn't crack
I woke up lying in some gray French field
I had nothing but the clothes on my back
My god that day was sunny
And the truth came beating down
I walked seventeen hours in Italian shoes
And I met her at the station in the neighbouring town
I'm a bored little man with a lot to lose
Someday I'll face that fact but not right now
Much to see in so little time
And so much more to know
Yeah
I don't like the people and I don't like the wine
But I do like a woman with a mind of her own
Yeah
Much to see in so little time
And so much more to know
Yeah
I don't like the people and I don't like the wine
But I do like a woman with a mind of her own
Yeah
Much to see in so little time
And so much more to know
Yeah
I don't like the people and I don't like the wine
But I do like a woman with a mind of her own
Yeah
