The Signal
By Shantell Ogden and Bill DiLuigi
Old Helen broke her hip last week
Finally got a ride in a model T
Hattie had to take her into town
Charlie and the widow Kate
Went to church on their first date
Guess her home cooking finally wore him down
They shared news fast as they were able
When they got called to neighbor's kitchen table
By the signal
Checkered pink and white
A store-bought tablecloth
They'd hang out on the line
It was calling
Way before the telephone
Gossip and the gospel truth was told
By the signal
They talked a lot about the war
And who went in tothe liquor store
Weddings, funerals and the rain
Shared fishing lies and recipes
Apple pie and sun brewed tea
N' who had another baby on the way, yeah yeah
By the signal
Checkered pink and white
A store-bought tablecloth
They'd hang out on the line
It was calling
Way before the telephone
Is how gossip and the gospel truth was told
By the signal
It wasn't complicated like it is these days
Cause the only way they talked was face to face.
By the signal
Checkered pink and white
A store-bought tablecloth
They'd hang out on the line
It was calling
Way before the telephone
Is how gossip and the gospel truth was told
By the signal
