Mr telephone Lyrics

CHORUS
Mr Telephone man
There's somethin' wrong with my line
When I dial my baby's number
I get a click every time
Mr Telephone man
There's somethin' wrong with my line
When I dial my baby's number
I get a click every time

When I dial 611 carry service
She said hello may I help you please
Told her somethin' must be wrong with my phone
Cuz my baby wouldn't hang up on me

CHORUS

He let the phone ring twenty times before he answered
Let me tell you what happened then
A minute later I got the operator
Sayin' please hang up and place your call again, baby

CHORUS

Some strange woman's on the telephone (my telephone)
Keeps tellin' me my baby he ain't home (that he's not home)
He ain't got no party line
Situation's blown my mind
Oh, I just can't take this anymore

~spoken~
Please Operator
See what you can do
I dialed the right number
But I still couldn't get through
Would you just check the wire
Just one more time if you can
I'm pretty sure his phone ain't bein' answered by no woman

CHORUS

Must be a bad connection to my love and affection
Oh baby, I just can't take this no more
This situation's blown my mind
Can't get my baby on the line

CHORUS (repeat)

I tried dialing information
Can't get no cooperation
System on the phone tellin' me my baby ain't home
Aw baby, I just can't take in anymore
Help me out please Mr Telephone man
Help me out please Mr Telephone man
