| Lyrics: | Long-distance operator,
Place this call, it's not for fun.
Long-distance
operator,
Please, place this call, you know it's not for fun.
I gotta get a message to my
baby,
You know, she's not just anyone.
There are thousands in the phone
booth,
Thousands at the gate.
There are thousands in the phone booth,
Thousands at the
gate.
Ev'rybody wants to make a long-distance call
But you know they're just gonna have to
wait.
If a call comes from Louisiana,
Please, let it ride.
If a call comes from
Louisiana,
Please, let it ride.
This phone booth's on fire,
It's getting hot
inside.
Ev'rybody wants to be my friend,
But nobody wants to get higher.
Ev'rybody
wants to be my friend,
But nobody wants to get higher.
Long-distance operator,
I believe
I'm stranglin' on this telephone wire. |
