Here I go at wreck neck speed,
because an extra marital affair I did not need.

I don't pretend to stand to tall
For here I come driving my Studebaker Gold Hawk,the classic of them all

I'm driving North on Old Dixie toward that Louisville town.
That's where I like to hang around

The Broadway Dizzy Whizz is on my mind.
That's where I spend a lot of my time
That's where I met old Long Tall Sally
She hails from down near Congress Alley

We drank some coffee then went into the dining room
The jukebox playing and Merle Haggard singing,
"I've got a yearning to hold you tight."
Sally looked me straight in the face,
And said, "Man, I'd like to hold you with all my might."

I finally got her to calm downand one of the waitresses said she didn't like that song.

She faced the counter, took a deep breath,
sweetened her coffee and took a sip.
The waitress said, "I wish he would hurry up and hold her and get it over with."

Sally and I went outside in the fresh air,
She said, "Man, we do make a good pair."

The Dizzy Whizz is next door to Freddie's Bar
Near the curb is where I usually park my car.
Down West Broadway we did stroll
to the Old Bus Station we did go.

We went inside and found an empty bench and sat down
I took her by the hand and said,
"Sally, there is one thing you should know:I have loved you from the start.
For I am A Man after God's Own Heart.
