Arkansas Seesaw

(album: Jerry Lee Keeps Rockin' - 1978)

I can hear that phone a-ringing
Ringing in Arkansas
Well, it might as well be ringing 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 merry-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-drinking
Drinking all alone
And listening to her phone a-ringing
On an' on

Arkansas seesaw
Little rock merry-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 merry-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 merry-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)

Arkansas seesaw
Little Rock merry-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
