Foghat – Full Time Lover lyrics

Dave Peverett - Riff Bros. Music - ascap

Long distance operator try another line,
There's no reply on this one, what a waste of time!
She can't be working, and she can't be in her bed,
She can't be home now, guess I'll drop a line instead.

In my wild days I had a girl on every page,
Now some don't want me and the others are engaged.
My little black book is about to bite the dust,
My telephone bell can't ring through all that rust.

I gotta find a full time lover,
I gotta find a full time lover.
Now my one night stands are so hazy,
And my social life is so crazy.

Hey operator, one more call before I'm done,
Forget Yolanda, I know Zelda is the one.
Last time I saw her, she was moving to Hong Kong,
She said she'd love me - 'til the real thing comes along.

I gotta find a full time lover,
I gotta find a full time lover.
Now my one night stands are so hazy,
And my social life is so crazy.

If it wasn't for me, my house would be deserted.
If it wasn't for me, I would have someone to hold on to.

I gotta find a full time lover,
I gotta find a full time lover.

{Instrumental - Dave - Solo}

I gotta find a full time lover,
I gotta find a full time lover,
I gotta find a full time lover...
