The Girl On The Billboard Songtext
von Del Reeves

Doo da doo doo doo
A doo da doo doo doo

Who is the girl wearing nothing but a smile
And a towel in the picture on the billboard
In the 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 that way

Like the girl wearing nothing but a smile
And a towel in the picture on the billboard
In the field near the big old highway

Well, what a girl wearing nothing but a smile
And a towel in the picture on the billboard
In the field near the big old highway

I bet it wouldn′t take her very long to get gone
If someone would pull a dirty trick and take her towel away
I slow my Jimmy down to 20
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 the billboard
In the field near the big old highway

A doo da doo doo doo
A doo da doo doo doo

Oh, I love the girl wearing nothing but a smile
And a towel in the picture on the billboard
In the field near the big old highway

I guess I′m getting bolder 'cause I'd rather kiss and hold her
Than just keep looking at her every day
At 4:45, coffee drinking, eating time, Jimmy shimmy
While I woke up the artist that painted the display

Of the girl wearing nothing but a smile
And a towel in the picture on the billboard
In the field near the big old highway

Doggone that girl wearing nothing but a smile
And a towel in the picture on the billboard
In the field near the big old highway

Sleepy-headed painter said the girl wasn′t real
And I′d better get the-, on my way
On Route 66 from the billboard to Chicago
You'll find tiny pieces of my heart scattered every which a-way


Shattered by the girl wearing nothing but a smile
And a towel in the picture on the billboard
In the field near the big old highway

A doo doo doo doo
A doo doo doo doo
A doo da doo doo doo
A doo doo doo doo
