Some Phone Numbers — текст песни (Jerry Jeff Walker)

Jerry Jeff Walker

For some kicks I went drinking, with some old hounds I ran with
While you were away for the day
Now the guys hadn`t changed much, the scene seemed the same
In the way that the night games are played

Chorus:
Without you I`d be one of the ones who just stumble
And grab any soft place to fall
Where each day begins with a walk out some doorway
With some phone numbers you`ll never call

As the evening drank on, we got more into basics
About loves lost and friends we have known
Well, Big John, he`s bankrupt, and Old Lucky`s in jail
And Fast Eddie`s still living alone

Chorus

Bridge:
Starting all over would be more than I could handle
I don`t think my lines would ring true
Looking for love in the arms of a stranger
Is more than I`m willing to do

Chorus

That night I drove home, past the houses for sale
Their plans had all come to an end
There`s no blueprint for livin`, no one has your answers
But we`re given some clues now and then

Chorus
