They call me the Long Tall Shorty 
'Cause I know what love is all about 
They call me Long Tall Shorty 
'Cause I know what love is all about 
Well I can tell you where the lights go 
Oh, when they go out 


Girls, if you get lonely 
Dial 4-2-4-6-8-9 
Well, girls, if you get lonely 
Dial 4-2-4-6-8-9 
And your troubles will be over 
I'll even give you back you dime 
Oh yeah 


I like 'em long, I like 'em tall 
I like 'em short, and that ain't all 
Now when I die, don't bury me deep 
Just put some women to my head, to my feet 
Tell all the world now, to come and peep 
Long Tall Shorty now has gone to sleep 
Whoa now 


I like 'em long, I like 'em tall 
Oh yeah 


They call me Long Tall Shorty 
'Cause I know what love is all about 
They call me Long Tall Shorty 
'Cause I know what love is all about 
Well I can tell you where the lights go 
Oh, when they go out
