jim stafford - a 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
h-llo, 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
h-llo. h-llo. lucille
