Lyrics for 'Western Union Wire' by 'Kinky Friedman'
(kinky Friedman)
From A Cheap Hotel In Dallas
On A Cold December Day
A Telegram Was Traveling On Its Way
Like A Sad Old Song From Somewhere
In The Distance Of A Dream
Flashing ¡®cross The Darkness
On The Telegraph Machine.
It Said, ¡°from Billy,¡± At The Bottom, ¡°to Baby,¡± At The Top
Western Union Wire ¡º ¡°please Help Me¡± ¡º Stop.
Western Union Wire ¡º ¡°don't Leave Me.¡± ¡º Stop.
Well, The Taxicab It Took Her
To The Airport In The Dawn,
She Knew In Just An Hour She'd Be Gone.
She Was Standing Near The Platform
¡®bout To Board The Big Pan Am
When Someone Came
And Put The Lonely Message In Her Hand.
It Said, ¡°from Billy,¡± At The Bottom, ¡°to Baby,¡± At The Top
Western Union Wire ¡º ¡°please Help Me¡± ¡º Stop.
Western Union Wire ¡º ¡°don't Leave Me.¡± ¡º Stop.
Headin' High Above Chicago
Just A-reachin' For The Skies
She Found Herself With Teardrops In Her Eyes.
And A Little Boy Beside Her Asked Her,
¡°mama, Where Is Pop ?¡±
And She Just Broke Down A-cryin'
¡®cause She Knew She Couldn't Stop.
It Said, ¡°from Billy,¡± At The Bottom, ¡°to Baby,¡± At The Top
Western Union Wire ¡º ¡°don't Leave Me.¡± ¡º Stop.
¡°ah, You Said You'd Always Love Me ¡º How Could You ?¡± ¡º Stop,
¡°in Pieces On The Runway ¡º I Love You.¡± ¡º Stop.
