<b>Hello, This Is Joannie</b> by <i>Paul Evans</i><br />

Hello, this is Joannie, I'm sorry but I'm not home

But if you leave me your name and number

I promise, soon as I get in I'll phone

Joannie, came over to my house last night

I drank a little too much red and we got into a fight

She said I'm leavin' and I let her go alone

I felt so damn bad this morning, I reached right for the phone

And called her right away, to beg her to forgive

The phone rang once, the phone rang twice

And then I heard her say-hey

Hello, this is Joannie, I'm sorry but I'm not home

But if you leave me your name and number

I promise, soon as I get in I'll phone

Joannie, I'm sorry and I'm feelin' oh so small

That was the message that I left and I waited for her call

I waited with a sinkin' feeling in my heart

Not knowin' if she'd forgive me was tearin' me apart

I couldn't go on this way, I had to call again

The phone rang once, the phone rang twice

And then I heard her say-hey

Hello, this is Joannie, I'm sorry but I'm not home

But if you leave me your name and number

I promise, soon as I get in I'll phone

My phone rang and my heart sang, my baby's called at last

Instead it was a friend who said that Joannie's car had crashed

I never should've let her drive home angry from my place

I'd never hold her again and kiss that funny face

But still there was a way to hear her voice again

The phone rang once, the phone rang twice

And then I heard her say-hey

Hello, this is Joannie, I'm sorry but I'm not home

(I'm so sorry Joannie)

But if you leave me your name and number

I promise, soon as I get in I'll phone

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Hello, this is Joannie, I'm sorry but I'm not home

But if you leave me your name and number

I promise, soon as I get in I'll phone
