Telephone Road |
My brother jimmy, my other brother jack |
Went off down to houston and they never come back |
Mama wasnt gonna let her baby go yet |
But there aint nobody hirin back in lafeyette |
Im workin all week for the texaco check |
Sun beatin down on the back of my neck |
Tried to save my money but jimmy says no Says hes got a little honey on telephone road |
Come on come on come on lets go This aint louisianna |
Your mama wont know |
Come on come on come on lets go Everybodys rockin out on telephone road |
Telephone road is ten miles long |
Fifty car lots and a hundred honky-tonks |
Jukebox blastin and the beer bottles ring |
Jimmy banging on a pinball machine |
Mama never told me about nothin like this |
I guess houstons bout a big as a city can get |
Sometimes I get lonesome for lafeyette |
Someday Im goin home but I aint ready yet |
