Tanya Tucker "I Don't Know...Please Tell Me!" |
I've been waiting tables in charley's grill since the spring i turned sixteen. It's a small cafe' near the railroad station in downtown Aberdean. Folk's round hear don't say to much cept when it's gonna rain and the most exciting thing to do is watch who get's off the train. One morning a tall dark stranger got the 204. With a suit/tie and shiny boots, and a question in his eye. Lord how I was blushing when he walked into the cafe' Tipped me a dollar for a cup of coffee And, and then I heard him say he said, "Girl it get plenty loney for a saleman on the road. Do you know a quiet where a saleman can rest a while?" The next morning, when the sun came up, he was lying in my bed. Telling me about the traveling business and how he got ahead. From then on out I couldn't wait for the second/ third day of every month when my saleman came town. and what else was a girl to do when he smiled at me and said, he said, "Girl it get plenty loney for a saleman on the road. Do you know a quiet where a saleman can rest a while?" I had some news about him and me, I was sure would make him stay. But a tall dark stranger got off the train instead. And what else was a girl to do when he smiled at me and said, he said, "Girl it get plenty loney for a saleman on the road. Do you know a quiet where a saleman can rest a while?"
