Arkansas Seesaw
Jerry Lee Lewis
(Thomas Cain - Michael Bacon, MERCURY, 1977)
I can hear that phone a-ringin'
Ringin' in Arkansas
Well, it might as well be ringin' on the moon
She wasn't there like she promised
You could say she lied
I can almost hear that echo
Through that empty room
Arkansas seesaw
Little Rock merri-go-round
She couldn't see one man at a time
Arkansas seesaw
She saw me for a good time
Arkansas seesaw
Has two-timed and gone
What a fool I was to trust her
Well, I might as well trust the wind
I don't know where she's going
But she's gone
So a-here I sit a-drinkin'
Drinkin' all alone
And listenin' to her phone a-ringin'
On an' on
Arkansas seesaw
Little rock merri-go-round
She couldn't see one man at a time
Arkansas seesaw
She saw me for a good time
Arkansas seesaw
Has two-timed and gone
Arkansas seesaw
Little rock merri-go-round
She couldn't see one man at a time
Arkansas seesaw
She saw me for a good time
Arkansas seesaw
Has two-timed and gone
(Arkansas seesaw)
(Little Rock merri-go-round) Whoa!
(She couldn't see one man at a time)
(Arkansas seesaw)
(She saw me for a good time)
(Arkansas seesaw, has two-timed and gone)
[Fade]
Arkansas seesaw
Little Rock merri-go-round
Arkansas seesaw
She couldn't see one man at a time
Arkansas seesaw
She saw me for a good time
Arkansas seesaw, has two-timed and gone
