Jason Boland & the Stragglers Lyrics
Telephone Romeo Lyrics
We kept part and connected by the same stretch of road
And I�m tired of packin� round this heavy load
It started out a stream but then the levee fell
When the rain maker had some extra seeds to sell
Well I just thought id call and see what�s going on
Did the hill country flatten out since I�ve been gone
Are the fields all painted up in red and blue
Are you thinking of me the times I�m thinking of you
Chorus
Well I just wanna drink �til I�m not thirsty
And I just wanna sleep �til I�m not tired
I just wanna drive till I run out of money
I don�t wanna be no Romeo on the telephone wire
Could we dream up a reason for a rendezvous
The Yanks are in town and we got nothing to do
You�re neighbors are gone and you�re feeling alone
You can�t kiss somebody on the telephone
Did you go out last night and was it just a friend
Would you care if I showed up there at 6:00 am
Drive all day with the top pulled down
We could stay in all night or we could paint the town
Chorus
I guess I better go now it�s getting too late
There�s a party downstairs and I thought I heard something break
I bid you goodnight and hope to see you soon
Maybe later on this afternoon
Chorus
