Girl on the Billboard Lyrics

The Girl on the Billboard
(as recorded by Del Reeves)
Key: D
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
Smiling 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
Wow 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 be 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 a lookin' at her everyday
At 4:45 coffee drinking eating time Jimmy shimmies
while I wake up the artist who 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
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
Scattered 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
Dee da dee dee doo Doo da doo doo doo....(fade)
