I was hangin? out in Mexico
I had a beachfront bungalow
I know I should have gone home
But I was doin? that Caribbean thing
I was listenin? to a Spanish guitar
Drinkin? margaritas under the stars
With a pretty senorita
When the telephone started to ring
Guess who
Chorus:
Hello, honey, I was just about to
Hello, baby, I was gettin? ready
Hello, I know I should have called sooner, oh, no, no
Hello, if you give me just a minute
Hello, don't you hang up til I'm finished
Hello, you're the only one I've ever, you know
Hello
Well, there was silence at the end of the line
I thought I'd give her till a quarter of nine
I forgot to call her back
And the party was a-rollin? at ten
See, I was workin? on tequila and lime
I guess I never even noticed the time
I was dancin? the Iguana
When the phone started ringin? again
And you know who
Repeat Chorus Twice
Hello, hello
Hello, hello, hello
