Just Seven Numbers (Can Straighten out My Life) Songtext

von The Four Tops

Baby baby, oh yeah, I my
Just seven numbers can straighten out my life
But my pride won't let me phone
Just seven numbers can put me through to you girl
(Doot- do-do-do-do)
Then I'll know you're really at home

You haven't been fair to me
Playin' on like jealousy
You say you're seein' some other guy
I don't know the truth from a lie
If I only knew where you were (only knew)

Just seven numbers can straighten out my life
If my fingers would only turn the dial
Just seven numbers can put me through to you girl
(Doot-do-do-do-do)
Just your hello, make me smile

I haven't been fair to myself
I tried to call someone else
But after she said 'hi' I hung up the telephone line
If I only knew where you were (only knew)
Just seven numbers can put me straight through to you

Ay, yeah.....baby.....whoa
(Just seven numbers) has taken out my life, oh girl
But my fingers don't turn the dial
(Just seven numbers) can put me through to you, baby
Just your hello would make me smile
(Just seven numbers, seven numbers)

(sound of telephone dialing-rotary!)

Lift up the wire and turn the dial!
(Seven numbers)
You'd straighten out my life
Whoa whoa, yeah baby, yeah
(Just seven numbers) I hi-hi
Yeah, I-hi-hi-hi
...& fade
