Tulsa Telephone Book — текст песни (Tom T. Hall)

Have you read any good telephone books lately?

If you aint then let me recommend one

Ive already read that tulsa telephone book through thirteen times

If you dont know any last names it aint much fun



Readin that tulsa telephone book, can drive a guy insane

Especially if that girl youre lookin for has no last name

I gotta find her and tell her, I dont want our love to end

So Im readin that tulsa telephone book again



Well, I was in tulsa and didnt have anything goin

She lived in tulsa and didnt have anything on

She said, "my name is shirley," and I said, "my name is t."

I woke up the next mornin and she was gone



All of the tulsa operators know my voice now

And they gotta know how long Ive been alone

If you meet a girl named shirley with some ribbons in her hair

Would you tell her that shes wanted on the phone



Readin that tulsa telephone book, can drive a guy insane

Especially if that girl youre lookin for has no last name

I gotta find her and tell her, I dont want our love to end

So Im readin that tulsa telephone book again

Im readin that tulsa telephone book again
