Betty on the Line Lyrics by Jamey Johnson

They Call Me Country

2002

[Verse 1]
Hey she's a pretty little thing, she's a covergirl
She could have any man in the whole wide world
She's a classy little lady, she's a debutante
Lord she's everything a man could want
[Pre-Chorus]
When she comes home at night, that girl ain't the same
She goes stone cold crazy when the telephone rings
[Chorus]
She talks dirty on the telephone, long about midnight
And she swears she's doin' nothin' wrong, she can make you feel right
Call 1-900 for Betty Joe, she'd love to hear from you tonight
She'll drive you crazy, make you lose control, and you've got Betty on the line
[Verse 2]
Hey he's a busy man, he wears a business suit
He's got a rolex watch, and designer boots
He drives a new Mercedes, to work everyday
He ain't got no time to get away
[Pre-Chorus]
And when the sun goes down, he's workin' overtime
But when he picks up the phone, y'all oughta see him smile
[Chorus]
He talks dirty on the telephone, long about midnight
And he swears he's doin' nothin' wrong, she can make him feel right
Call 1-900 for Betty Joe, she'd love to hear from you tonight
She'll drive you crazy, make you lose control, and you've got Betty on the line
