Telephone Romeo

We kept part and connected by the same stretch of road
And Im 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 whats going on
Did the hill country flatten out since Ive been gone
Are the fields all painted up in red and blue
Are you thinking of me the times Im thinking of you

Chorus
Well I just wanna drink til Im not thirsty
And I just wanna sleep til Im not tired
I just wanna drive till I run out of money
I dont 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
Youre neighbors are gone and youre feeling alone
You cant 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 its getting too late
Theres 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
