Mary Wells - Operator lyrics

rate me

Operator, operator

I'm so glad that you rang my phone

Operator, operator

I'm so glad that you found me home

I can hear my long gone lover

I've waited such a long, long time

So please, operator put him on the line

I want him on the line, I want him on the line

I want him on the line

I wanna talk to that long gone lover of mine

Operator, operator, there is static in my line

Did he say that his love was true?

Did he say that his love was mine?

Did he say he was coming home?

Did he say where he has been?

I can't hear a word he's saying

If you keep buttin' in, you keep buttin' in

You keep buttin' in

I wanna know if he's comin' home again

It shouldn't take this much time

To clear my mind, ease my mind

Oh operator, please get straight

It's unfair to make me wait any longer

My curiosity is stronger don't you know

That it's wrong, oh so wrong

Operator, operator, this is very strange

What is the hold up here? Doesn't he have the change

Oh, please operator, if he don't have another dime

Reverse the charge to me, put him on the line

I want him on the line, I want him on the line

I wanna talk to that long gone lover of mine

I wanna talk to that long gone lover of mine
