Blind Lemon Jefferson Long Distance Moan
(Blind Lemon Jefferson)
I'm flyin' to South Carolina, I've got to go there this
time
I'm flyin' to South Carolina, I've got to go there this
time
Woman and tell me, Texas, about to make me lose my mind
Long distance, long distance, would you please give me
a credit call
Long distance, long distance, would you give me please
your credit call
Walk up to my girl in South Carolina, who looks like
her hands done squalled
Just wanna ask my baby, what in the world is she been
doin'
Wanna ask my baby, what in the world is she been doin'
Give your lovin' to another joker and its sure gonna be
my ruin
Eh, long distance, I can't help but moan
Mmm mmm, I can't help but moan
My baby's voice sounds so sweet, almost wrecked the
telephone
You don't know your love, you're wrapped deep so far
from you
You don't know your love, your letter, I said she's so
far from you
You can get a long distance moan, and you don't care
what you do
I think I hear the tele buzzin', get my darlin' off my
mind
Oh you tele-parties, get my baby off my mind
This long distance moan about to worry me to death this
time
