Lyrics

They call me the Long Tall Shorty 'Cause I know what love is all about They call me Long Tall Shorty 'Cause I know what love is all about Well I can tell you where the lights go Oh, when they go out Girls, if you get lonely Dial 4-2-4-6-8-9 Well, girls, if you get lonely Dial 4-2-4-6-8-9 And your troubles will be over I'll even give you back you dime Oh yeah I like 'em long, I like 'em tall I like 'em short, and that ain't all Now when I die, don't bury me deep Just put some women to my head, to my feet Tell all the world now, to come and peep Long Tall Shorty now has gone to sleep Whoa now I like 'em long, I like 'em tall Oh yeah They call me Long Tall Shorty 'Cause I know what love is all about They call me Long Tall Shorty 'Cause I know what love is all about Well I can tell you where the lights go Oh, when they go out
