Long Distance Operator

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
