Long Distance Blues Lyrics

Ida Cox Long Distance Blues

Hello Central : give me long‑distance please
I'm begging with tears in my eyes : and down on my bended
knees

Hello Central : give me Mr Henry Brown
What you say you were calling : a storm has blown the
wires down

Listen long‑distance : can you send a telegram
Do this please : before I fall down *left in a jam*

You just tell him : he better hurry home
Because I'm tired : of making all these nights alone
