(Jesse Kirkland - Gary Burton)

There goes my baby going for a ride
Yeah, there goes my baby going for a ride
Well, I know she's lonesome if I'm not by her side
She's always talking on that telephone
Oh, she's always talking on that telephone
Well, she must be lonely 'cause she's at home alone.

Well time's a wasting talkin' 'bout this gal
I love her so much but I'll get along somehow
Yeah, we used to fight and she'd call me a dirty dog
Oh, we used to fight and she'd call me a dirty dog.
Well, talking to that woman is like talking to a hollow log, yeah.
