| Yes, oh yes, Long Distance, I’ll accept the charge, I’ll pay
|
| Which loved one is calling me, I did not hear you say
|
| Both are deep within my heart, her Mom and my Marie
|
| It’s so good to hear your voice from Memphis, Tennessee
|
| Oh, you mean so much to me, more than you’ll ever know
|
| Surely, you have not forgot how much I love you so
|
| If you would remember, Dear and sometimes talk to me
|
| Maybe that would reunite our home in Tennessee
|
| Last time I saw you, just before I had to leave
|
| You did not want to see me off and promised not to grieve
|
| My heart was torn apart as I looked back at my Marie
|
| And there the pieces still remain with you in Tennessee
|
| I guess I should stop talking, after all you placed the call
|
| But anyway that I can help, you know I’ll help you all
|
| Then she spoke and asked me to come back and see Marie
|
| And live together in our home in Memphis, Tennessee |
