Operator Songtext

von Gene Harris

Operator, I'd like to call long distance
Please connect me with the Lord

Operator, information
Give me Jesus on the line
Operator, information
I'd like to speak to a friend of mine

Now God is my number
Faith is the exchange
Heaven is the street
And Jesus is the name

Operator, information
Give me Jesus on the line
Oh operator, information
Please tell me why it's takin' so long

Operator, information
Don't try to tell me what number to call

My mother used this number
When I was very small
Every time she dialed it
She always got the call

So operator, information
Give me Jesus on the line

Operator, information
Please help me if you can
Operator, information
Please connect me with the man

Don't you worry 'bout the money
'Cause I will pay the charge
Give me a private line
Callin' from my heart

Operator, information
Give me Jesus on the line
