Operator, Long Distance Please Lyrics


Barbara Mandrell Operator, Long Distance Please

(Kye Fleming - Dennis W. Morgan)

I woke up alone the bed was so cold
I learned a lot in just one night
I don't like T.V., I don't like to read
And I don't like this single life
I don't even mind if he says I told you so
I gave it one night that's long enough to know

Chorus
Operator, Long distance please
Could you ring this number for me
I've been callin' all afternoon,
There's something wrong
I can't get through
Operator, long distance please,
I can't wait for him to call me
I only need a second or two,
That's all it takes to say I love you

I called yellow cab to see where they had taken him last night
I called the airlines, they checked his flight
He was on the 8.09
I called the hotel where he stays when he goes to L.A.
They said he checked in late last night, Room 245

Chorus

I've got to keep dialin' tryin' can't you see
If I can just reach him, he'll come back to me
