Jim Stafford Real Good Time lyrics

I JUST CAME INTO TOWN I DIDN'T HAVE NOTHING TO DO
I HAPPENED UPON THIS TELEPHONE BOOTH
WITH A WHOLE BUNCH OF WRITING COVERING ONE ENTIRE WALL
IT SAID IF YOU AIN'T AFRAID TO SPEND A DIME AND IF YOU WANNA HAVE A REAL GOOD TIME
JUST GIVE lUCILLE A CALL
NOW UNDERNEATH HER NUMBER WAS THIS BIG LONG LIST SAID SHE'D DO THAT
SAID SHE'D DO THIS
I LET MY FINGERS DO THE WALKING THROUGH ALL KINDS OF STUFF I'D MISSED
WELL, I SHUFFLED THROUGH MY POCKETS TILL I FOUND MYSELF A DIME
I HEARD A RING OR TWO I GOT HER ON THE LINE
I SAID LUCILLE, I'D LIKE TO HAVE A REAL GOOD TIME.

CHORUS

I MIGHTA FOUND A LOVER I MIGHTA MADE A NEW FRIEND
I AIN'T HAD A REAL GOOD TIME SINCE I DON'T KNOW WHEN
DON'T KNOW WHEN

SHE SAID WELL WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT IS THIS
I SAID IT'S JIM, LUCILLE. IT'S ABOUT THIS LIST
WHICH I BEGAN TO READ WITH PARTICULAR EMPHASIS ON MY FAVORITE NUMBERS
1,5,11,14,21,33, AND 44 THROUGH 59
SHE SAID WHERE ARE YOU I GAVE HER THE STREET
SHE SAID YOU SOUND LIKE A GUY I'D LOVE TO MEET
SHE SAID STAY RIGHT WHERE YOU ARE AND I PROMISE YOU A REAL GGOD TIME


CHORUS

MIGHTA FOUND A LOVER
MIGHTA MADE A NEW FRIEND
I AIN'T HAD A REAL GOOD TIME SINCE i DON'T KNOW WHEN

'BOUT 15 MINUTES AFTER MY ARREST
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE QUESTIONS I TRIED TO PROTEST
THAT I WASN'T THAT MAN OF OBSCENE PHONE CALLS OR MASTER OF CRIME

WELL, THEY TOOK ME AWAY THEY ALLOWED ME ONE CALL
I RECALLED THAT NUMBER ON THE PHONE BOOTH WALL
I SAID, LUCILLE, ME AND YOU GOT A WHOLE DIFFERENT IDEA ABOUT A REAL GOOD TIME

CHORUS

I LOST MY LOVER
I LOST MY NEW FRIEND
YOU CAN'T HAVE A REAL GOOD TIME
DOING 1 TO 10
HELLO, LUCILLE. LOOKIE HERE HONEY, I'M GONNA BE TIED UP HERE FOR QUITE AWHILE AND I WAS WONDERING IN OH MAYBE ABOUT TEN YEARS OR SO WHEN I GET OUT OF HERE IF YOU'D MIND IF I GAVE YOU A CALL
HELLO. HELLO. LUCILLE
