Operator, Long Distance Please Songtext

von Barbara Mandrell

(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
