lyrics

It’s been a while since you came around
The grapevine says that you’re back in town
Hey boy won’t you drop me a line some time?

The operator won’t give me a line
I guess it’s got to be... on your dime
Hey buster, won’t you drop me a line some time

It’s been a while since we’ve hung out
What’s all this circumnavigation about?
Hey Phileas Fogg, when you’ve seen the world
Maybe you’ll notice... this lonely girl...
Come on boy won’t you drop me a line some time

VERSE 2
You’ve got me living on a short short leash
You could let me have a nibble at least
Hey bud, would you throw me a bone some time?

I checked the hospitals and mortuaries
The way you’re avoiding me is getting kind of scary
Hey Casper, won’t you make an appearance some time

CHORUS:
I checked our local haunt to see if you were about
When I came in, I saw you running out
The bartender said that you mentioned my name
You’re making me feel like I’ve got the plague...
Hey speedy, won’t you put on the brakes some time?

VERSE:
You fished me in like gin to a drinker
Now I’m falling hook line and sinker
Captain Nemo won’t you come up for air some time?

In case I’m not getting to you mister…
If things don’t work out with my sister
Hey boy won’t you drop me a line some time
