Seventeen years in a telephone booth Waiting on the loan of a dime Somebody must have took the big yellow book With the number that you call for time I don't care if the ride gets rough Don't mind leaving the road Walked 40 miles just to see you smile Love to help you carry your load Love to help you carry your load Some you win, some you lose, Some you gotta leave behind Some are gonna bring you happiness, Some will give you trouble in mind Heaven knows you're troubled Been blue since the day you were born Worn out man in second hand Everything that you ever did own Somewhere there is someone Looking for a girl like you Sunny days chase away All of your childhood blues All of your childhood blues Some you win, some you lose, Some you gotta leave behind Some are gonna bring you happiness, Some will give you trouble in mind Seventeen years in a telephone booth Waiting on the loan of a dime Somebody must have took the big yellow book With the number that you call for time I don't care if the ride gets rough Don't mind leaving the road Walked 40 miles just to see you smile Love to help you carry your load Love to help you carry your load (repeat until end)
