[Verse 1]
Can you guess where I'm calling from?
The Las Vegas Hilton
I know it's hard to hear
It's just the echo on the line
[Pre-Chorus]
Yes, that's right I'm calling from
The Las Vegas Hilton
I just wanna say that I'm feeling fine
[Chorus]
I'll be home on a Monday
Somewhere around noon
Please don't be angry
I'll be back with you real soon
[Verse 2]
I was hoping to catch a glimpse
Of the man from Memphis
They told me that he had gone
Never leaving a trace
[Pre-Chorus]
I just could never get involved
With those one armed bandits
Sure am craving for the smile on your face
[Chorus]
I'll be home on a Monday
Somewhere around noon
Please don't be angry
I'll be back with you real soon
[Bridge]
You looked so lovely
When I left I nearly didn't go
Twelve thousand miles is
Such a long way
Help me get to grips with
Hollywood
You're gettin' through to me
Hollywood
You're in my movie
[Chorus]
I'll be home on a Monday
Somewhere around noon
Please don't be angry
I'll be back with you real soon, oh
[Chorus]
I'll be home on a Monday
Somewhere around noon
Please don't be angry
I'll be back with you real soon
[Outro]
Can you guess where I'm calling from?
Yes that's right I'm calling from
The Las Vegas Hilton
Can you guess where I'm calling from?
The Las Vegas Hilton
I know it's hard to hear
It's just the echo on the line
[Pre-Chorus]
Yes, that's right I'm calling from
The Las Vegas Hilton
I just wanna say that I'm feeling fine
[Chorus]
I'll be home on a Monday
Somewhere around noon
Please don't be angry
I'll be back with you real soon
[Verse 2]
I was hoping to catch a glimpse
Of the man from Memphis
They told me that he had gone
Never leaving a trace
[Pre-Chorus]

With those one armed bandits
Sure am craving for the smile on your face

I'll be home on a Monday
Somewhere around noon
Please don't be angry
I'll be back with you real soon

You looked so lovely
When I left I nearly didn't go

Somewhere around noon
Please don't be angry
I'll be back with you real soon, oh

I'll be home on a Monday
Somewhere around noon
Please don't be angry
I'll be back with you real soon

Yes that's right I'm calling from
