Girl On The Billboard (1965)
A-do, do, do, do, do
A-do, do, do, do, do
Who is the girl, wearing nothing but a smile and a towel in the picture on a billboard in a field near the big old highway?
Rolling down the highway in my Jimmy hauling freight from Chicago to ST. Louis, Lord I see her every day
A double clutching weasel like me can hardly ever get a girl to look at him a-that-a way
Like the girl, wearing nothing but a smile and a towel in the picture on a billboard in a field near the big old highway
Wow what a girl, wearing nothing but a smile and a towel in the picture on a billboard in a field near the big old highway
I bet it wouldn’t take her very long to get gone if some woman pulled a dirty trick and took her towel away
I slow Jimmy down to twenty that’s how many wrecks I see there every day.
Caused by the girl, wearing nothing but a smile and a towel in the picture on a billboard in a field near the big old highway
Oh, I love the girl, wearing nothing but a smile and a towel in the picture on a billboard in a field near the big old highway
I guess I’m getting bolder cause I’d rather kiss and hold her than just keep a-looking at her everyday
At 4:45 coffee drinking, eating time, Jimmy shimmied while I woke up that artist that painted that display
Of the girl, wearing nothing but a smile and a towel in the picture on a billboard in a field near the big old highway
Doggone that girl, wearing nothing but a smile and a towel in the picture on a billboard in a field near the big old highway
The sleepy headed painter said the girl wasn’t real and I’d better get the ________ on the way
On route 66 from the billboard to Chicago you will find little pieces of my heart scattered every which way
Shattered by the girl, wearing nothing but a smile and a towel in the picture on a billboard in a field near the big old highway
