nora jane struthers & the party line - party line lyrics
imagine my surprise
when they came down the drive
with that big spool of electric wire
didn’t understand exactly what they meant
but they said, “when we’re finished
you can talk with all your friends”
right inside our house without going out
seemed like nothing new, but who am i to doubt
the magic power of an electric wire?
now we’re all on that party line
i can’t hardly get a word in edgewise
everyone’s on that party line
no one ever comes to call
why don’t you call?
we used to chew the fat
do you remember that?
back when time moved slow
as pine tree sap
seeping up through the boards
right here on my back porch
i used to love the smell of the magnolias in the morning
now you telephone
this don’t feel like home
without your foot tapping when i put the coffee home
and i can’t see your smile
through no electric wire
now we’re all on that party line
i can’t hardly get a word in edgewise
everyone’s on that party line
no one ever comes to call
why don’t you call?
now we’re all on that party line
i can’t hardly get a word in edgewise
everyone’s on that party line
no one ever comes to call
why don’t you call?
