Tulsa Telephone Book

Dave Dudley

    Continues after the ad

    Have you read any good telephone books lately
    If you ain't then let me recommend one
    I've already read that Tulsa telephone book through thirteen times
    If you don't know any last names it ain't much fun
    Well I was in Tulsa and didn't have anything going
    And she was in Tulsa and didn't have anything on
    She said my name is Shirley and I said my name is Dave
    I woke up the next morning and she was gone
    Readin' that Tulsa telephone book will drive a man insane
    Especially if that girl you're looking for has no last name
    I got to find her and tell her I don't want our love to end
    So I'm readin' that Tulsa telephone book again

    All of the Tulsa operators know my voice now
    They must know how long I've been alone
    If you see a girl named Shirley with some ribbons in her hair
    Tell her that she's wanted on the phone
    Readin' that Tulsa telephone book...
    I keep on readin' that Tulsa telephone book again
    I'm readin' that Tulsa telephone book again
