Sure Enough, The Telephone Rings Lyrics

Sure enough, the telephone rings
Who wants my money now?
Otherwise the telephone never would ring
No, oh, oh, oh

Sure enough, the telephone rings
Who wants my money now?
Ditched and snatched
And jackrolled out to pasture
Oh, oh, oh

Please be fair
You must tell the kids they live in hell now
Please be fair
You must tell the kids they live in hell now

Sure enough, the telephone rings
Who wants my money now?
Otherwise the telephone never would ring
No, oh, oh, oh

Sure enough, the telephone rings
Who wants my body now?
Buried, dug up
Buried, then dug up again
Oh, no, oh
Please be fair
You should tell the little kids they live in hell now
You should tell the little kids they live in hell now

It's only fair
You should tell the little kids they live in hell now
It’s only fair
You should tell the little kids they live in hell now

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
