Well it’s floodin’ down in Texas,  
All of the telephone lines are down.  
Well it’s floodin’ down in Texas,  
All of the telephone lines are down.  
And I’ve been tryin’ to call my baby,  
Lord and I can’t get a single sound.

Don’t judge me,  
You could be me in another life; in another set of circumstances.  
Don’t judge me,  
One more night I’ll just have to take my chances,  
But tomorrow, we’ll see.

Feeling funny in my mind Lord,

Friday night arrives without a suitcase  
Sunday morning creeping like a nun  
Monday’s child has learned to tie his bootlace  
See how they run

Cover me with kisses, baby  
Cover me with love  
Roll me in designer sheets  
I’ll never get enough  
Emotions come, I don’t know why  
Cover up love’s alibi

Call me (call me) on the line  
Call me, call me any, anytime

Call of a dog, cry of a bitch,  
Cream of the dream is the cause of the itch.  
Call on the doctor, cash on demand,  
If you get enough rope, might even hang.  
C.O.D. : Care of the devil,  
C.O.D. : The devil in me.  
C.O.D. : Care of the devil.  
Care of the devil in me.
