Hung Up on You Lyrics

While I down Kentucky bourbon 
I am waiting for a call 
And the moon and stars tonight 
Are playing shadows on the wall 

With the moon the way it is, dear 
Would you answer out of spite 
Or are you feeling lonely tonight 

Cause I remember last time 
We were out under the stars 
Driving crooked down the highway 
Drinking beer in roadside bars 

And now and then I wonder 
Why this painful memory 
Can never find its way to you from me 

And I can't dial the phone just now 
Even though I know your number 
Can't bring my broken heart to be untrue 
Like you did today 
You'll say goodbye the same old way 
Ever since you hung up on me 
I'm hung up on you 

Well the house I'm ringing up from 
Is a half a mile from you 
But with the reception I'm getting 
Might as well be Timbuktu 

And behind the door of your home 
Is a strange and foreign land 
Where you speak a language I don't understand 

And I can't dial the phone just now 
Even though I know your number 
Can't bring my broken heart to be untrue 
Like you did today 
You'll say goodbye the same old way 
Ever since you hung up on me 
I'm hung up on you 

Now I'm going down to Jimmy's bar 
Like a thousand other times 
With an appetite for poison 
And a suitcase full of dimes 

And I'll wait there by the payphone 
With one hundred other guys 
With those sorry hung-up teardrops in our eyes 

And I can't dial the phone just now 
Even though I know your number 
Can't bring my broken heart to be untrue 
Like you did today 
You'll say goodbye the same old way 
Ever since you hung up on me 
I'm hung up on you
