Andrew Lloyd Webber
He Whistled at Me
CONTROL:
Time up, Time up! Penalty, Penalty
Rusty Unconnected! Ten Penalty points!
RUSTY:
What's wrong, Pearl? Got no partner?
PEARL:
No
RUSTY:
Never mind
I'll take you -
PEARL:
No Rusty - I know you mean to be kind...
RUSTY:
You'd rather have no one than race behind me?
PEARL:
You don't understand, why don't you see?
I have this train I dream about, an engine moved by steam
RUSTY:
No problem, I'm a steamer, maybe I could be the engine of your dream
PEARL:
Can you whistle?
RUSTY:
Sure I can
Woo-oo, woo....
PEARL:
Yes it's close, but it's not like in my dreams
Sorry Rusty, I know how it must seem
No one else can take his place
THE DREAM TRAIN:
Woo woo, woo woo
PEARL:
Nobody can do it like a steam train
THE DREAM TRAIN:
Woo woo, woo woo
PEARL:
Nobody can do it like a steam train
I was waiting at the station
I was all anticipation
I was painted, I was polished
I was shining like a star
PEARL (THE DREAM TRAIN):
And then he whistled at me (woo woo)
He looked in my direction
He whistled at me (woo woo)
This could be my connection
All because he whistled at me (woo woo)
He sure knew how to woo me
He whistled at me (woo woo)
I'm gonna hitch him to me
PEARL:
I'd been out of circulation
I had lost my motivation
Rejected and dejected
Then he was on the line
In an atmosphere all steamy
He said things I thought were dreamy
He said I was good looking
Said I was divine
Then he started getting fresher
Started putting on the pressure
From the sounds that he was making
I could tell that he was mine
PEARL (THE DREAM TRAIN):
Because he whistled at me (woo woo)
I knew he had to choose me
He whistled at me (woo woo)
And now he'll never lose me
All because he whistled at me (woo woo)
Now every time you'll find him
He whistled at me (woo woo)
You'll find me there behind him
THE DREAM TRAIN:
Woo woo, woo woo
PEARL:
Nobody can do it like a steam train
THE DREAM TRAIN:
Woo woo, woo woo
PEARL:
Listen to the rhythm of the steam train
PEARL (THE DREAM TRAIN):
He whistled at me (woo woo)
He sure knew how to do it
He whistled at me (woo woo)
This time he really blew it
All because he whistled at me (woo woo)
He sure knew how to woo me
He whistled at me
Now they can't undo me
Mmm I'm sure he whistled at me (woo woo)
Now every time you'll find him
He whistled at me (woo woo)
You'll find me there behind him
All because he whistled at me (woo woo)
He sure knew how to woo me
He whistled at me
