Well 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's 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 you're 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've got these homesick blues Tell me, I can come on home to you
I've got this faded number in my wallet It's been here a dozen years I know I used to call it up when I was lonely Well oh, that woman sure could love me so
I know by now she's probably changed her number And with my luck she's probably changed her name If there's a chance in Hell I'll 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've got these homesick blues Tell me, I can come on home to you
So 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've got these homesick blues Tell me, I can come on home to you Hey tell me, I can come on home to you
