[00:01.88]Artist by kinky friedman
[00:24.30]From a cheap hotel
[00:26.30]In Dallas
[00:27.34]On a cold December day
[00:31.60]A telegram was traveling on it's way
[00:37.71]Like a sad old song from somewhere
[00:40.67]In the distance of a dream
[00:45.15]Flashing 'cross the darkness
[00:47.34]On the telegraph machine
[00:49.98]It said from Billy
[00:52.53]At the bottom
[00:54.41]To baby at the top
[00:57.95]Western union wire
[01:01.77]Please help me stop
[01:06.49]Western union wire
[01:10.20]Don't leave me stop
[01:14.22]Well the taxicab it took her
[01:17.62]To the airport in the dawn
[01:21.65]She knew in just an hour
[01:24.20]Shed be gone
[01:27.54]She was standing near the platform
[01:30.92]'Bout to board the big pan am
[01:34.09]When someone came
[01:35.62]And put the lonely message in her hand
[01:40.12]It said from Billy
[01:42.77]At the bottom
[01:44.56]To baby at the top
[01:48.29]Western union wire
[01:51.86]Please help me stop
[01:56.38]Western union wire
[02:00.19]Don't leave me stop
[02:04.45]Headin' high above Chicago
[02:07.31]Just a reachin' for the skies
[02:11.57]She found herself with teardrops in her eyes
[02:15.44]In her eyes
[02:17.36]And a little boy beside her asked her
[02:21.65]Mama
[02:22.51]Where is pop
[02:24.27]And she just broke down a cryin'
[02:27.43]'Cause she knew she couldn't stop
[02:31.60]It said from Billy
[02:33.78]At the bottom
[02:35.58]To baby at the top
[02:39.69]Western union wire
[02:43.05]Don't leave me stop
[02:46.07]Leave me ah you said you don't always love me
[02:51.38]How could you stop
[02:53.78]You stop in pieces on the runway
[02:59.76]I love you
[03:04.01]Stop
