It's lonely out tonight down here in Georgia And the oldest friend I've got I met today The woman that I love just up and left me And the place I love is a thousand miles away
Operator hook me up to Houston Get me anybody on the phone Look there in your book and pick a number 'Cause you can't be choosy when your this alone
Won't you talk to me Texas let me hear that drawl I spent my last five dollars on this one long distance call Won't you talk to me Texas I got these homesick blues Tell me I can come on home to you
I got this faded number in my wallet That's been in here a dozen years I know I used to call it up when I was lonely Lord that woman sure could love me so
I know by now she's probably changed her number With my luck she's probably changed her name If there's a chance in hell I think I'll take it 'Cause I'd love to hear that woman's voice again
Won't you talk to me Texas let me hear that drawl I spent my last five dollars on this one long distance call Won't you talk to me Texas I got these homesick blues Tell me I can come on home to you
Won't you talk to me Texas I got these homesick blues Tell me I can come on home to you
