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
