Telegram Sam Lyrics

[Intro]
Oh yeah

Telegram Sam
Telegram Sam
You are my main man

[Verse 1]
Golden nose Slim
Golden nose Slim
I knows where you've been

Purple pie Pete
Purple pie Pete
Your lips are like lightning
Girls melt in the heat

[Chorus]
Telegram Sam
You're my main man
Telegram Sam
You're my main man

[Verse 2]
Bobby's alright
Bobby's alright
He's a natural born poet
He's just outta sight

Jungle faced Jake
Jungle faced Jake
I said make no mistake
About jungle faced Jake, Jake

[Chorus]
Telegram Sam
You're my main man
Telegram Sam
You're my main man

[Verse 3]
Bobby's alright
Bobby's alright
He's a natural born poet
He's just outta sight

Automatic shoes
Automatic shoes
Give me 3-D vision
And the California blues

Me I funk
But I don't care
I ain't no square
With my corkscrew hair

[Chorus]
Telegram Sam
You're my main man
Telegram Sam
You're my main man

[Outro]
Telegram Sam
You're my main man

Telegram Sam
Telegram Sam
I'm a howling wolf
Telegram Sam
I'm a howling wolf
Telegram Sam
I'm a howling wolf
