I went to the Western Union just to send off a telephone
I phoned to tell her, "Stay in Memphis, I really mean, now we's way back down home."
Some people say that I'm right, now, and some say I'm wrong
Some people say that I'm right, now, listen, some say I'm wrong
You know, I can't have a job steady, boy, and I begin to think about what it's like down home
I mean, I'm used to drinkin' and I'm used to seein' a very good time
I mean, I'm used to drinkin' and I'm used to seein' a very good time
Things happen away back down home, now, I declare, they sure runs across my mind
Now, the ticket agent, she told me, when the Western Union agent give me my number wrong
I mean, the ticket agent, she told, the Western Union give me my number wrong
You sure can get your number, but you can't call to hear my words back down home

Hey, and listen, now, baby, now, don't you tell me wrong
Hey, listen now, baby, now, don't you tell me wrong
I musta didn't have your right number when I went to the Western Unions for the telephone
