Lyrics

Well I'm sitting here waiting for her to call me on the phone I'm sitting here waiting for her to call me on the phone She's been gone twenty-four hours and that's twenty-three hours too long First eight hours I was rolling and tumbling, I couldn't hardly stay in bed Next morning I tried to eat my breakfast and the blues was all in my bread Sitting here waiting for her to call me on the phone She's been gone twenty-four hours and that's twenty-three hours too long Next eight hours I spent rambling, going from place to place No matter what I looked at I could still see my baby's face I'm sitting here waiting for her to call me on the phone She's been gone twenty-four hours and that's twenty-three hours too long Next eight hours I spent praying, praying for her to return If she don't come back to me you know my heart will forever yearn I'm sitting here waiting for her to call me on the phone She's been gone twenty-four hours and that's twenty-three hours too long
