I met her a little while ago
Waitin" tables babe,don't you know
She was the only one
I could talk too
Linda what's become of you
She was sweet and young
And oh so nice
Eagerness made me pay the price
Now when I call her
On the telephone
Her mother says she ain't home
Chorus
Linda where have you gone
Linda did I do you wrong
Linda don't make me pay this price
I was just being nice

Do you want me to be mean or cruel
Does it matter if I'm macho or cool
Please baby tell me what you want
So I can be with you tonight
Well she called me on the telephone
About 2 hours we talked of home
She asked me to stop on by
She didn't come and talk
I could have died

Chorus
Now I'm waiting for you to call
Cause my pride
Won't let me talk at all
Please baby you gotta make the move
Sittin' in my cold cruel room
Chorus(repeat 2 times)
