Jerry Jeff Walker - Some Phone Numbers lyrics

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
