Lyrics

I just came into town i didn't have nothing to do I happened upon this telephone booth With a whole bunch of writing covering one entire wall It said if you ain't afraid to spend a dime and if you wanna have a real good time Just give lucille a call Now underneath her number was this big long list said she'd do that Said she'd do this I let my fingers do the walking through all kinds of stuff i'd missed Well, i shuffled through my pockets till i found myself a dime I heard a ring or two i got her on the line I said lucille, i'd like to have a real good time. Chorus I mighta found a lover i mighta made a new friend I ain't had a real good time since i don't know when Don't know when She said well who are you and what is this I said it's jim, lucille. it's about this list Which i began to read with particular emphasis on my favorite numbers 1, 5, 11, 14, 21, 33, and 44 through 59 She said where are you i gave her the street She said you sound like a guy i'd love to meet She said stay right where you are and i promise you a real ggod time Chorus Mighta found a lover Mighta made a new friend I ain't had a real good time since i don't know when 'Bout 15 minutes after my arrest In the middle of the questions i tried to protest That i wasn't that man of obscene phone calls or master of crime Well, they took me away they allowed me one call I recalled that number on the phone booth wall I said, lucille, me and you got a whole different idea about a real good time Chorus I lost my lover I lost my new friend You can't have a real good time Doing 1 to 10 Hello, lucille. lookie here honey, i'm gonna be tied up here for quite awhile and i was wondering in oh maybe about ten years or so when i get out of here if you'd mind if i gave you a call Hello. hello. lucille
