Lyrics
Hello Barbara, this is Lonnie, and the reason I'm calling you, baby
Is to let you know that that wife of mine was going through my
Pockets to rip me off of my change as she does every morning, and
She found your telephone number in my pocket. It woke me up when
She dialed your number, so I just laid there with my eyes closed
And my ears open listening to her as she began to run that weak game
Down to you, talking about "woman to woman." Listen, if she had been
Any kind of real, earnest-to-goodness, hope-to-die, mud-kicking
Money-getting, understanding woman like you, she wouldn't have
Called, ranking herself in the first place. And this bed she's
Talking about that I sleep in, huh, it's a mattress on the floor
Baby, with one sheet. When she gets in, I get out. And baby, you know
If you don't feed me, I don't eat. Then she got the nerve to talk
About the clothes I wear, she buys. I know you had to crack up about
That, 'cause baby, you been buying all my clothes. You know that I
Don't wear no more clothes here than I can put on my back, ever since
She went and pawned my mink coat that you bought me for my birthday
You remember that, baby. Dig this: I went to get in the car yesterday
Afternoon to come see you, and the hookup man was towing the car out
The driveway because she didn't pay the last two notes, and I gave
Her the money that you had given me as soon as I got home. Girl, I'm
Sure glad that you got that brand new Rolls Royce right on time. So
You see, Barbara, I just wanted to straighten that little old
Situation right on out, and to show you how I really
Feel about you, darling, and how much I really love you
Just listen to Lonnie blow his horn, baby. I'ma blow
It just like you love to hear me blow it. Listen, baby
I'm glad I could get the word out to you, baby, and I'm glad that
You know that I love you, and I'm glad that I got the chance to
Tell you, baby, that I love you, and I'm glad that you know that
You're the one I love, and I'm glad that you're the one I love
That's all I really have to say, baby. I'm glad you know that
