Long distance transportation, get me Memphis, Tennessee
Help me find the hottie tried to get in touch with me
She set my heart a-Twitter when she started to text us
But we didn’t have no cellphones then and we were on a bus
Jackie Gleason at the wheel and Jackie Wilson next
Too much static on the line, did she say no or yes?
She’ll meet us at the next tour stop, try to make the scene
And bring with her two Jersey girls, Nadine and Maybelline
They’ll sing their little ditty ’bout their boyfriend coming back
The Osmonds were so white back then, the Jacksons still were black
Marie was only six years old, Donnie had the voice
Now who’d a-thunk two-thousand-nine they’d dig the Jersey Boys?
(Apologies to Chuck Berry. And anyone who read all the way thru, let alone sang along.)
