Tulsa telephone book

Have you read any good telephone books lately?
If you aint then let me recommend one
Ive already read that tulsa telephone book through thirteen times
If you dont know any last names it aint much fun

Readin that tulsa telephone book, can drive a guy insane
Especially if that girl youre lookin for has no last name
I gotta find her and tell her, I dont want our love to end
So Im readin that tulsa telephone book again

Well, I was in tulsa and didnt have anything goin
She lived in tulsa and didnt have anything on
She said, my name is shirley, and I said, my name is t.
I woke up the next mornin and she was gone

All of the tulsa operators know my voice now
And they gotta know how long Ive been alone
If you meet a girl named shirley with some ribbons in her hair
Would you tell her that shes wanted on the phone

Readin that tulsa telephone book, can drive a guy insane
Especially if that girl youre lookin for has no last name
I gotta find her and tell her, I dont want our love to end
So Im readin that tulsa telephone book again
Im readin that tulsa telephone book again
