Call Letter Blues Lyrics

Well, I walked all night long Hearin' 'em church bells tone Yes, I walked all night long Listenin' to them church bells tone Either someone needing mercy Or maybe something I've done wrong
Well, your friends come by for you I don't know what to say Well, your friends come by for you I don't know what to say I just can't face up to tell 'em Honey, you just went away
Well, children cry for mother I tell them, "Mother took a trip" Well, children cry for mother I tell them, "Mother took a trip" Well, I walk on pins and needles I hope my tongue don't slip
Well, I gaze at passing strangers In case I might see you Yes, I gaze at passing strangers In case I might see you But this sun goes around the heavens And another day just drives on through
Way out in the distance I know you're with some other man Way out in the distance I know you're with some other man But that's alright, baby You know I always understand
Call girls in the doorway All giving me the eye Call girls in the doorway All giving me the eye But my heart's just not in it I might as well pass right on by
My ears are ringin' Ringin' like empty shells My ears are ringin' Ringin' like empty shells Well, it can't be no guitar player It must be convent bells
