Three rings and an answering machine is what she got

If you're callin' bout the car, I sold it. If this is Tuesday night, I'm
bowling.

You know what to do. And P.S. If this is Austin, I still love you.

The telephone fell to the counter. She heard but she couldn't believe
C D Em C D
What kind of man would hang on that long, What kind of love that must be
